The United Nations General Assembly is addressing the rights of Afghan women and children, particularly concerning the Taliban s ban on girls education. The ban, which the Taliban justifies based on their interpretation of Islamic law, affects over 1 million girls in Afghanistan. Muslim-majority countries and international organizations have condemned the ban, but the Taliban remains resistant. The impact of the ban extends beyond education, affecting the country s economy, healthcare, and overall population. While it may take time for the consequences to trigger widespread unrest among Afghan men, women have already protested against the restrictions.
