The Taliban's return to power in Afghanistan has led to severe restrictions on women's rights, reversing decades of progress. Under their rule, women face limitations on education, employment, and freedom of movement, with strict dress codes and restrictions on participation in public life. These measures not only undermine women's autonomy and equality in Afghanistan but also send a troubling message globally about the regression of gender rights. The international community, particularly organizations like UN-Women, has condemned these actions, emphasizing the need for urgent intervention and support for Afghan women. The global repercussions are far-reaching, as the Taliban's stance threatens to roll back hard-won gains in gender equality, while also contributing to broader concerns about human rights and the security of vulnerable populations worldwide.
