Taliban Rule Deepens Oppression and Poverty in Afghanistan

Original: The Taliban and the Afghan People: Oppression and Poverty

The Taliban's governance of Afghanistan continues to draw attention over the combination of harsh repression and worsening economic hardship. Restrictions on women's rights and basic freedoms are compounding widespread poverty, leaving much of the population dependent on humanitarian aid. Advocacy groups are highlighting the plight of ordinary Afghans and urging the international community to keep the crisis in focus.

Why now: Human rights groups are drawing renewed attention to the twin crises of repression and economic collapse under Taliban rule.
