Afghanistan International: On the third anniversary of the Taliban’s rule, Amnesty International accused the group of widespread human rights violations, particularly against women. In a detailed statement released on Thursday, Amnesty International stated that Taliban authorities are committing crimes against the people of Afghanistan with “absolute impunity”. Amnesty International further stated that the Taliban viewed human rights activists, protesting women, journalists, and political activists as “enemies,” leading to their gradual disappearance from the public sphere. According to the organisation, some were forcibly disappeared, arbitrarily detained, and imprisoned, while others were tortured. Many fled the country, with a large number stranded in Iran, Pakistan, and Türkiye. Click here to read more (external link).
