The UN Security Council unanimously approved a resolution calling on the Taliban to immediately end its crackdown on women’s rights in Afghanistan. The resolution also urges the Taliban to combat militant groups operating within the country. This action reflects international concern over the increasingly restrictive policies imposed on women since the Taliban regained power. These policies include limitations on education, employment, and freedom of movement. The Council emphasized the importance of protecting the human rights of all Afghans, particularly women and girls. The resolution does not include any enforcement mechanisms, relying instead on diplomatic pressure. It signals a unified international stance against the Taliban’s actions and a commitment to supporting the rights of Afghan women.
