Afghanistan Through Map Animation

Since the Taliban seized power in 2021, they are enforcing a radical and extremist interpretation of Sharia law, and have steadily clamped down on the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan. This includes limiting their access to employment and education. #dwnews Disclaimer: In a former version of this caption we wrote that the Taliban have reintroduced Sharia law. That is incorrect. Sharia law has always been part of the Afghan constitution and legal system. So we changed the wording.
