Under the pretext of going to Iran, he took us from Kabul, and after a 20-hour journey, we reached Nimruz. In Nimruz, he took us to a guesthouse. Moments after we arrived, I noticed him outside, loudly talking with some men. I realized they were talking about me and my daughters. My husband said, “Haji Sahib, come see for yourself; my wife and daughters are here. I brought all three.” He intended to sell us to a stranger. In fact, he already had and had pocketed the money.

Join this campaign by @rawadari_org and @FemenaNet. Sing, recite a poem, or share a message of solidarity with Afghan women in protest against the Taliban's ban on women's voices. #Power2AfghanWomen

[Zubaida Akbar @ZubaidaAKBR]

Shocking new directive: Today, the Taliban's Minister of Vice and Virtue announced a ban on adult women's voices in each other's presence. In August, the Taliban banned women's voices in public, deeming it provocative. Women protested to this ban by singing and poetry.

#BBC had long lost it. Closure of #Hardtalk marks the end of one of d few platforms left for tough, uncompromising interviews that hold power 2 account. In an era when rigorous journalism is more essential than ever, this decision is a blow to public discourse and accountability

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

This is very likely why BBC Hard talk cancelled after 3 decades

Important @EUCourtPress judgement on #Afghanistan recognises that Afghan women as a group are persecuted. In European states their gender and nationality are enough to establish asylum without individuals needing to prove persecution.

It was a great pleasure to have contributed to the German Parliament @Bundestag academic report on #Corruption , Patronage & Clientelism in #Afghanistan and Countermeasures in Future Crisis Operations,' alongside Prof. Schetter, Dr Schmeidln and others.

[Kate Clark @KateClark66]

English summary of new German paper on corruption, patronage, clientelism in Afghanistan:
(using SIGAR calculations) €77-123m German money was lost to corruption, €768m-1.2 b to resource inefficiency.

Afghanistan: The latest arbitrary arrests of political activist Jawid Kohistani and journalist Hekmat Aryan point to the relentless repression under the Taliban's rule against anyone who dares to speak up and peacefully express their views. These reprisals are in complete violation of Afghanistan's obligations under international human rights law.

The Taliban de facto authorities must immediately release Jawid Kohistani, Hekmat Aryan, and others who have been unlawfully arrested and stop the practice of enforced disappearance, arbitrary detention, and torture and other ill treatment of people exercising their right to freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly.

Free Jawed Kohistani

[Freedom Now @freedomnoworg]

It has been five days since the #Taliban detained political analyst Jawed Kohistani. Their ongoing attacks against dissenting voices are deeply alarming, and the rising violence is a cause for grave concern. This must come to an end.

In this article, @williammaley1 argues why we should NOT recognise TB. British & Norwegian closure of Embassies is misguided & likely lies in domestic politics, perhaps in a desire 2 secure cooperation from the TB in deporting Afghan https://t.co/qnqGeqkjPr

ویدیو: ضیا احمد تکل، معاون سخن‌گوی وزارت خارجه از سپرده نشدن چوکی افغانستان در سازمان ملل متحد به نماینده امارت اسلامی به شدت انتقاد کرد.

آقای تکل می‌گوید که نسپردن چوکی افغانستان در سازمان ملل، به نماینده مردم افغانستان جفا در حق مردم کشور است.
