MORE ABOUT THIS COUNTRY

A grave shadow cast itself on Afghanistan in 2021 when the Taliban took control of the country. Despite giving away assurances to safeguard the rights of women, the extremist regime abolished all the progressive measures. The terrorist rulers killed women sportspeople and hunted former women judges, journalists, educationalists, activists, and lawyers. The ruthlessness of the Taliban embarked on a horrific that endangers all Afghans who envisioned a progressive nation for future generations. The recent abolition of polio vaccination drives is the most recent atrocity against humanity in Afghanistan. The country ranks 9th in the Open Doors USA Persecuted Country List. As of today, no country in the world recognizes this Islamic militant regime.
