زبیده اکبر، فعال حقوق بشر، در سخنرانی تکان‌دهنده خود در نشست امروز شورای امنیت ملل متحد، رویکرد گزینشی جامعه جهانی را محکوم کرده می‌گوید شکست دستور کار «زنان، صلح و امنیت» افغانستان را به کشوری تبدیل کرده که زنان در آن نامرئی شده‌اند.

بله مهمه خبره چې د دې مدرسو په اړه د کلکې اندېښنې وړ ده، هغه داده چې دا مدرسې له کومو مالې سرچینو څخه تغذیه کیږي؟ که څه هم یوه برخه په دې راپور کې را اخیستل سوی چی طالبان د مدرسې سره د کومک په نوم رشوت اخلی. او همدارنګه د دې لاری دا ترهګر ملایان خپله شخصي شتمنې هم ډیروی. خو د دې مدرسو سره د بهرنیو تندلاریو سازمانونه او د قاچاقبرانو ډلې، او همدارنګه د یوشمېر بهرنیو هیوادونو استخباراتې سازمانونه چی د تندلارو ډلو په مالې او روزنېزه برخه کې مخېنه لری، د مالې تمویل په هکله هم اندېښنې او پوښنتی مطرح کیږی. همدارنګه د بهرنیو ترهګرو شتون د دې مدرسو په اډانه کې تر ټولو زیات د اندېښنې او د هیوادوالو لپاره د ژور فکر خبره هم ده. ځکه دا وخت د طالب جنایتکارانو له لورې په سلګونه او ان په زرګونه بهرنې ترهګر او تندلاری کسان راوستل سوی دی او دلته په هیواد کې په پراخه کچه باندې شتون لری.

Ultimate doctrinal authority flows from the Supreme Leader’s office through a newly established General Directorate of Religious Affairs in Kandahar. The Supreme Leader directly appoints senior administrators of jihadi madrasas, sets doctrinal parameters and exercises final approval over the curriculum.

شهزاد اکبر، رئیس نهاد رواداری: حکم بازداشت رهبران طالبان که از سوی دیوان کیفری بین‌المللی صادر شده بسیار مهم است و این نشان می‌دهد که جهان عاملان سرکوب را می‌شناسد.

[AAN Afghanistan @AANafgh]

Afghanistan’s education system is being transformed. The Taliban report more than 23,000 registered religious education institutions, up from some 5,000 registered madrasas before 2021, with 3.65 million students.
@TimorSharan examines what this transformation means 👇

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.

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.

Today’s announcement that Canada, Germany, Netherland & Aus bringing Taliban to International Court of Justice 4 gender discrimination & violations of women's and girls' rights is welcome news. This is a crucial first step in holding TB accountable. #Afghanistan #ICJ
