KABUL Cheap Jameer Nelson Jersey , Sept. 19 (Xinhua) -- Over 300 Afghan families, who had fled violence for safer areas, were waiting for aid in northern Afghanistan's restive Faryab province, a private news agency, Pajhwok Afghan News, reported Tuesday.


They had fled their homes after heavy clashes between security forces and Taliban insurgents over the weekend, which killed a 12-year-old boy, injured five people and damaged 50 houses in an airstrikes targeting Taliban.


"Some 300 of the total 600 families living in Moqani area had been displaced to Maimana city, capital of province, by the conflict and inside Pashtunkot district as well," said the report, adding the displaced families faced acute shortage of food and warm clothes.


Mohammad Rahim, provincial refugee and repatriation director, was quoted in the report as saying that the department would provide aids to the displaced families after their exact number was made clear through a survey.


More than 1 million Afghans have been displaced due to insurgency and conflicts in the Central Asian country within the past 16 years.

French President Emmanuel Macron is preparing to backpedal on the issue of creating an official First Lady position for his wife amid attacks from left-wing opponents and a petition against the move, officials and reports said.


The newly elected 39-year-old president promised in March on the campaign trail to create a “a real status” for his wife Brigitte, who is his former school teacher.


The issue has become a new political headache for Macron after an online petition against creating the role garnered more than 200,000 signatures and a poll showed a majority of French people were also opposed.


The presidency will clarify Brigitte Macron’s position in the coming days, a source told AFP late on Monday, adding that there would be no change to the constitution to create a new First Lady position.


Instead, the presidency will clarify Brigitte Macron’s resources and make public the cost to the public purse, the source and the BFM news channel said.


The new status would have seen France copy the American system of having a President and First Lady roles. Neither country has ever had a female head of state.

The wife of the French president has historically always played a public role at official functions and has a small security and secretarial staff. But she has no formal job title, like the partners of the British prime minister or German chancellor.


“Brigitte Macron plays a role, has responsibilities,” government spokesman Christophe Castaner wrote on Twitter. “We want transparency and to make clear the resources at her disposal.”


The focus on the First Lady proposition comes at a bad time for Macron as polls show his popularity slipping badly only three months after the young centrist clinched a sensational victory in May.


One poll published last week showed just 36 percent of respondents held a positive view of him.


Parliament is also preparing to vote for a new ethics law on Wednesday which will prevent MPs from employing their partners or family members as assistants after a series of scandals.


Macron has always made clear that Brigitte would not be paid in the proposed role as First Lady.


“Paid by the Republic, no. Having a role, a real status, a real capacity to act, yes,” Macron said in March when asked about his vision for the future position on RTL radio.


Brigitte would “have the role that she’s always had. That’s to say that she is at my side because it balances me. We’ve always worked like that,” he added.


“She will have a role, she won’t be hidden because she’s part of my life,” he explained.


Brigitte Macron, who is 25 years older than her husband at age 64, married her former pupil after they fell in love while writing a play together at school.


Reports say she is preparing to take an active role supporting mental health and handicap charities.


NOW, it’s Angelina Jolie’s turn.


In May, Brad Pitt opened up to GQ Style in a bombshell of an interview, his first following a widely publicized and relatively nasty split from longtime partner Angelina Jolie. In the story, Pitt talked about the circumstances surrounding the divorce, admitting that he had quit drinking and was working toward becoming a better man.


By nearly all accounts, the Michael Paterniti-penned profile was great for Pitt, who had taken a significant hit to his image with tabloid and TMZ reports of an alleged altercation on a private plane between Pitt and their son Maddox.


Jolie has kept quiet until now.


In the September issue, Vanity Fair published a cover story featuring the 42-year-old actress, filmmaker, humanitarian and mother of six. For the profile, titled “Angelina Jolie Solo,” she sat down with longtime Vanity Fair contributing editor Evgenia Peretz.


Vanity Fair has been something of a go-to for Jolie. She’s been featured on multiple covers through the years, all with revelatory and intimate interviews. This new one is no different.


As for her relationship with Pitt and whether they’re able to communicate now, she said: “We care for each other and care about our family, and we are both working towards the same goal.”


As for the family unit, Jolie contends that everyone is on the upswing, though she prefers to keep it vague. “We’re all just healing from the events .
