From Badakhshan to Herat — Afghanistan is rising against... Taliban tyranny. The Taliban regime has carried out mass detentions of women in Herat, abducting young women overnight and holding them in Taliban facilities. As families and local residents protested these unethical and brutal actions, Taliban forces opened fire on civilians, killing at least two people and injuring around 20 others. This is a heinous crime against the people of Afghanistan — a direct assault on human dignity, freedom, and the rights of women. The world must not stay silent while innocent Afghans are terrorized for demanding basic human rights. Afghans across every province, tribe, and generation must stand united against oppression and tyranny. The struggle for a free Afghanistan continues, and history will remember those who stood against injustice. One day we will hold everyone who partook in these crimes responsibleshow more

📌 #Philippines 🇵🇭 Despite raising the age of sexual... consent to 16, the Philippines continues to struggle with teenage pregnancy, with some of the youngest recorded mothers being just 10 years old. Teenage pregnancy is driven by a combination of poverty, lack of comprehensive sex education, limited access to contraception and reproductive-health services, school dropout, early sexual activity, and sexual abuse or coercion. #The Philippines also faces a serious chld sxual exploitation problem, including documented cases involving foreign offenders and cases in which family members or other people close to the child facilitate or profit from the abuse. (The legal age of consent for s*xual activity in the Philippines is 16 years old, but children who are at least 13 years old can engage in s*xual activity with someone no more than 3 years older than the minor)show more

The Taliban regime in Afghanistan is subjecting its people... to daily oppression, turning the entire country into a living hell by reinstating systemic child abuse and widespread mistreatment.

A video showing two Taliban fighters stopping a young... girl in Herat province and inspecting her mobile phone has once again raised serious questions about the state of civil liberties in Afghanistan. Following the imposition of sweeping restrictions on women's education, employment, and movement, it now appears that even citizens' privacy is not safe from Taliban oversight. The suppression of women, arrests, and silencing of protest voices in Herat had previously sparked widespread concerns, but the inspection of mobile phones and scrutiny of citizens' personal information is regarded by many as yet another assault on people's fundamental rights and privacy.show more

Western politicians, based on a secret and shameful deal... in Doha, have sold the present and future of Afghan women into the hands of that wild group that cannot be compared to the animals of the forest too! In our culture treating a woman like this would result in death, but now this is happening on the streets of my country, because Afghans have already been sold by so-called human rights organizations, and Afghan men are silent because of the fear of death unfortunately 😡 But I am optimistic that Afghan women will definitely one day take revenge for their humiliation from their internal and external enemies. This path is difficult but not impossible!show more

Five years of Taliban rule have pushed Afghanistan to... the brink of collapse. This is not Gaza under bombardment or Ukraine under missile and drone attacks. This is Afghanistan—where thousands of young men and families are fleeing because repression, economic hardship, and the loss of hope have left them believing they have no future at home. In these videos are former soldiers, doctors, engineers, skilled workers, students, and young families. Many know they may be shot at borders, detained, abused, deported, or even drown on the journey toward Europe. Yet they still leave, because they see no path to a life of dignity under Taliban rule. As long as the Taliban remain in power, Afghanistan will continue to produce mass displacement, fuel regional instability, and create conditions that can threaten international security. If Europe and the international community want to reduce irregular migration from Afghanistan, they must address its root cause—not just its consequences. The root cause is Taliban rule. The Afghan people do not want to live as refugees. We want to live, work, and build our future in our own country. Stand with the Afghan people—not the Taliban—in our struggle for a free, stable, and dignified Afghanistan. Support the armed struggle against the Taliban this is the only way to a free and safe Afghanistan.show more

From an Afghan women:- Four years! That’s how long... millions of Afghan girls and women have been waiting, for classrooms to reopen, for workplaces to welcome them back, for their dreams to breathe again. I was one of the lucky ones. I had the chance to learn, work, grow, be independent, and make choices about my own life; like any human being should. But I often think: this could have been the story of countless other Afghan girls if only they had been given the same opportunities. Education and work are not privileges, they are basic human rights. Until every girl in Afghanistan can study and work freely, the world will continue to miss out on their talent, ideas, and contributions. In just a few years, Afghanistan has lost what took two decades to achieve, especially for women. Decades of progress have been rolled back, taking with them the voices, dreams, and potential of millions. Today marks four years since Afghanistan changed in a way that put the future of its girls and women on hold. I stand in solidarity with them - those whose dreams have been taken away entirely.show more
