UNAMA: Arrest of Women over Taliban’s Mandatory Dress Code Reflects Alarming Trend of Fear, Repression, and Systematic Exclusion of Afghan Women
The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) has expressed grave concern over the recent arrest of dozens of women and girls in Kabul by the Taliban’s morality police for allegedly violating the group’s strict dress code. UNAMA warned that such actions contribute to the growing isolation of women and girls, erode public trust, and intensify a climate of fear across the country.
