Sharbat Gula gained worldwide fame in 1984 after her photo, with piercing green eyes, was published on the cover of “National Geographic” magazine

The statement, however, did not provide the details of the air strikes and was silent on whether international coalition was involved in the operation.

The decision was taken on humanitarian grounds and as a goodwill gesture towards Afghanistan.

Sharbat Gulla and her four children were handed over to Afghan authorities early on Wednesday at the Torkham border crossing, near Peshawar.

Militants say the major offensive was in reprisal for U.S. airstrikes in Kunduz earlier this month.

Foreign Minister Salahuddin Rabbani, Public Works Minister Mahmood Baligh and Social Services Minister Nasreen Oryakhel failed to win confidence votes in parliament.

“The iconic Afghan Sharbat Gula will soon be in India for medical treatment free of cost — Thank you India for being a true friend!,” Afghan Ambassador Shaida Abdali tweeted.
