About the time in Helmand
Around 1,472,162 people live in Helmand, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Helmand runs on Asia/Kabul, which puts the city UTC +4:30 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 05:43 and sunset at 06:51 local time, giving 13h 08m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (31.00, 64.00) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Helmand.
