Panjshir River

The Panjshir River flows through the Panjshir Valley in northeastern Afghanistan, 150 kilometres (93 mi) north of Kabul. It flows southward through the Hindu Kush and joins the Kabul River near Sarobi. A dam was built at this junction in the 1950s to supply water from the Panjshir River to the Kabul River.[1]
