Taliban have increased restrictions on girls' education. With slowly banning girls over the age of 10 to attend elementary schools, young girls and women's presence is further erased from the public eye. 684 days since girls were last allowed in schools. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

607 days since the Taliban administration formally banned secondary education for young Afghan girls. This has been followed by a series of borrowing bans on public presence, university education, and women's right to work. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

607 روز از بسته شدن مکاتب دختران زیر امر طالبان گذشته است. علم و تدریس دختران افغان نباید قربانی جنگ های ادیالوژیک شود. حقوق زنان و دختران افغان نباید قربانی این جنگ گردد. LetAfghanGirlsLearn#

Hundreds of Afghan interpreters, who were granted settlement status in the UK, have been left stranded in hotels in Pakistan. The British government originally said they could come to the UK with their families, because they'd helped British forces -@de_Jong_Sara explains

600 days since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. Afghan girls and women continue to be denied their basic human rights as a matter of state policy and the world has remained mostly muted #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

The Old City of Sanaa in Yemen is one of the oldest cities in the world, continuously inhabited for more than 2500 years. Meaning 'fortified palace', the city is a work of art in itself, & remains one of the greatest treasures of Arabia A thread on the Old City of Sanaa…

“Prosecutors, judges, lawyers who tried to provide women with a measure of justice are in hiding themselves, fearing reprisals by the Taliban. And with shelters closing, those who called them home have no choice but to return to their abusive families” hrw.org/news/2021/09/2…

"The Taliban have been publicly punishing Afghans for a long time - children & women particularly. The legal framework has been completely abolished. Women have been publicly flogged. It's good to see @UNAMAnews finally doing a report on it" @ShaharzadAkbar human rights activist

"I don't think they (United Nations) know what they're doing. If there's no will to help Afghan women, you can just give in - 'the Taliban don't want it, we aren't going to get any money' - right now we're in need of help, so make it happen, for god's sake" @SerajMahbouba

"There's a figure of about 2800 women who were working in Afghanistan's media before the withdrawal. Now there's only 250 of them really earning a living" German MEP @HNeumannMEP travelled to Afghanistan & met with women struggling since the Taliban takeover #WorldPressFreedomDay
