Kabul: The US forces are helping the Islamic State group in the country, former Afghan president Hamid Karzai has alleged in a controversial interview.

Asked if the US bases were being used to aid Daesh, the other name of ISIS, he said, “I have more than suspicions”.

'The Afghan people have told me how they (ISIS) are supplied with helicopters.

'How unmarked non-military colour helicopters supply these people, not only in one part of the country but in many parts.

'And this is a daily occurrence,” he said in an exclusive interview with Russia Today in London.

He also claimed that the terror group has been able to spread its tentacles in the country just under the nose of the US forces and the powerful CIA.

Asked if he agrees that the ISIS was a US construct, he said, 'Absolutely'.

Karzai said the Afghan extremism has grown stronger since the 9/11 terror attack in the US, despite spending billions of dollars in the war against terror.

“We don’t want our country to be bombed with huge, destructive weapons. We want peace,” he said.

Karzai also claimed that the US did not use the MOAB (mother of all bombs) in Afghanistan to defeat the terrorists but for some “other reasons”.

“The bomb wasn't even for that, they say this was to indicate to North Korea the US power. Whatever the purpose was, it was an atrocity on the Afghan people.

“You don't drop a bomb because you want to kill a few individuals. You ruined the environment, the village, the air and the water,” the ex-Afghan president said.
