Twenty-nine Afghan prosecutors have been killed by the Taliban in the last two years.

Afghan Taliban rebuff United Nations report on pervasive human rights violations in the country, asserting the respect of rights under Islamic laws.

This issue extends beyond Iran’s borders and carries the potential for escalating tensions with its neighbors, Iraq and Afghanistan.

According to experts, the majority of the signatories are members of the previous corrupt regime that dominated the country for two decades.

The TTP aims to overthrow the government and install its own brand of strict Islamic law in the predominantly Muslim nation of 220 million.

Foreign governments and UN officials have condemned growing restrictions on women since the Taliban returned to power in 2021.

A recent UN report said that the link between the Taliban and Al-Qaeda "remains strong and symbiotic.” 

According to AISS, the IsraAid "coordinated the evacuation of 167 vulnerable Afghan nationals, from Afghanistan to the UAE and Albania, before long-term resettlement."

Since the United States pulled out of Afghanistan, more than 1000 civilians have been killed under the new Taliban regime. The bulk of those deaths occurred due to explosions.
