Innconet female Noria is a victim of poverty and gender discrimination under Taliban rule. After her father’s death, she had no male breadwinner. To provide halal income for her family and siblings, Noria worked in a restaurant for three years, forced to dress as a boy just to survive. Instead of protection, Taliban fighters detained her during a search operation. During interrogation, she said she had no choice: poverty left her as the family’s only provider. The Taliban ban girls from education and women from work, impose new restrictions every day, then punish those who struggle to survive. #EndGenderApartheid #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

This is the reality of Afghan women today: She can beg, but not study. No rights. No education. No freedom. Because an educated woman has power, and the Taliban fear that. Afghan women are fighting for freedom. Will you stand with them? #15August #FreeAfghanWomen #HRW #UN

The Taliban’s Minister of Higher Education has once again in his speech said, branding those who criticize the group’s new so called “slavery order” targeting women as infidels. This order, now added to the Taliban’s Penal Code, places extreme control over women’s private lives. These restrictions impose the harshest pressure on women: they are not even allowed to visit their father’s home. Universities and schools remain closed to them, and some women, driven by despair, have resorted to suicide. For years, the Taliban have refused to acknowledge this reality, choosing instead to continuously humiliate and suppress women and girls. Over the past four years, the situation in women’s health and education has become catastrophic. From tens of thousands of doctors, fewer than ten remain available. Maternal and infant deaths are rising daily due to the lack of medical services and education for women. The situation of women in Afghanistan is truly painful and inhumane. The world must not forget this crisis and must stand against the Taliban’s ongoing bans and oppression. Elon Musk Murtaza Solangi J.K.
