Bit,

I would worry more about the bad air and water. The air and the water in Afghanistan, especially in Kabul is probably the dirtiest in the world. Lots of dust in the air. Add in the exhaust fumes from all the old Russian trucks they still use there. You'll spend a lot of time coughing and hacking. Much of the time the visibility will be around 2KM.
