TWO YEARS OF REPRESSION: Mapping Taliban Violence Targeting Civilians in Afghanistan bit.ly/3YzCmx5
Two years of Taliban rule: This woman from Baghlan province says that the Taliban regime is deeply misogynistic, barring women from participating in society, working, and accessing education.
Two years ago, the Taliban captured the Afghan arsenal. Certain weapons are now in motion, departing the country. For further details, refer to our recent situation update. bit.ly/3pvAhoW
The Taliban use violence to impose harsh restrictions impacting various societal aspects, including curbing women's rights and silencing the media. The Taliban forcefully enforces these restrictions, concentrating on attacking women and journalists, particularly in Kabul.
Two years of Taliban rule: Afghan women should contribute to the economy and have political participation in the country. There should be equal rights between men and women.
Taliban intervention is more probable in demonstrations involving women compared to those without them. The targeting of women extends beyond protests and affects their daily lives.
Two years of Taliban rule: This girl from Kandahar was close to graduating from university but got caught in the ban. Previously employed & supporting her family, she now can't due to the work ban. Confined at home, she feels trapped and silenced, and sees no hope for the future.
Civilians in areas with armed anti-Taliban fronts face brutal Taliban attacks, enduring beatings, torture, and extrajudicial killings. Following Kabul, Takhar and Panjshir saw the second and third highest civilian-targeted violence rates by the Taliban.
Two years today since the Taliban seized the Afghan arsenal. Some of the arms are moving, and leaving the country Read more in our recent Situation Update on #Afghanistan by @APWORG : bit.ly/3pvAhoW
NEW REPORT | Two Years Of Repression: Mapping Taliban Violence Targeting Civilians in #Afghanistan Read it here ▶️ bit.ly/3YzCmx5
From August 16, 2021, to June 30, 2023, there were over 400 attacks targeting ex-government & ANDSF. The Taliban was directly responsible for 290 cases. In various instances where the culprits were unknown, victims blamed the Taliban.
This joint report of @ACLEDINFO & @APWORG examines patterns of violence targeting civilians under Taliban regime, with particular attention to the top four most targeted groups: former government & ANDSF, prisoners, women, and journalists. acleddata.com/2023/08/11/two…
The Taliban’s targeting of civilians has contributed to its overall failure to guarantee security and stability, creating a humanitarian crisis while also exposing civilian communities to additional threats from other groups, notably the Islamic State.
The Taliban enforces oppressive restrictions, notably on women’s rights and press freedom, with violent means. This is particularly evident in Kabul, where women and journalists face brutal attacks. @APWORG @ACLEDINFO acleddata.com/2023/08/11/two…
2 days after the fall, Taliban pledged amnesty for ex-ANDSF, promised to respect women's rights, & press freedom. Yet, 2 years on, they've reneged, opting for a brutal repression drive, breaking all vows. Read more in our report. @APWORG @ACLEDINFO acleddata.com/2023/08/11/two…
