It was right that Nobel peace prize recognised the fight against gender oppression.

But it should have been an Iranian & Afghan woman jointly winning. Or both Iranian & Afghan women’s movements. Afghan women face near erasure from public life & they risk it all to protest.

🗣️'When I was 14, they came to take me & hold the marriage ceremony. I managed to cancel that'

@shakardokht is the first Afghan woman to receive a PhD in medical physics & became a cancer pioneer in the UK.

She told @BBCNuala how she resisted an arranged marriage in her youth⬇️

Afghanistan girls’ robotics team are making progress abroad. This picture is from the 5th UN Conference On The Least Developed Countries in Doha where they presented some of their work.

Inspirational!

"This barring is neither Islamic nor humane."

Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu commented on the Taliban banning women from universities in Afghanistan.

Besides Turkey, various other governments have condemned the Taliban’s decision.

[Foreign Ministry 🇸🇦 @KSAmofaEN]

#Statement | The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s surprise and regret at the decision of the #Afghan caretaker government to deny Afghan girls the right to university education.

[Hammasa Kohistani @HammasaK]

Another slap in the face for Afghan women. The taliban banning women from university guarantees the collapse of Afghan society. Shameful #Taliban #LetAfganGirlsLearn #FreeAfghanWomen #universityban #Afghanistan
