Over 22 million in Afghanistan to need aid by 2025: OCHA​

The Frontier Post

KABUL (Khaama Press): The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) for Afghanistan has reported that 22.9 million people in Afghanistan will require humanitarian assistance in 2025.

In a report released on Wednesday, December 18, OCHA highlighted that millions of Afghans, particularly women, face severe restrictions imposed by the Taliban.

According to the report, these restrictions have jeopardized the safety of Afghan citizens, especially minorities, leaving them vulnerable to discrimination and harm.

The report further revealed that out of the 22.9 million people in need, 21 million lack access to adequate healthcare and safe drinking water.

Additionally, 14.8 million people are facing severe food insecurity, while 7.8 million women and children urgently require nutritional support.

OCHA also warned of an impending drought crisis that is expected to threaten Afghanistan in early 2025, further exacerbating the humanitarian challenges.

The organization stated that humanitarian actors can only provide aid to 16 million of the 22.9 million people in need by 2025 due to funding constraints.

Which one of the OIC countries follow said true Islam?



Do you follow the Islam that the Saudis teach?




48:32

But if you receive wahis on who gets to lead or what economic policy should be enforced, please let us know.



Which part does not? Which part allows you to go out without companionship?



I had to discard half a dozen posts and calm myself down. You are mistaking correlation with causation in all of your arguments. Before I get worked up again, I will suggest that you educate yourself on the matter, and take my leave. Under every metric ever recorded, an educated woman results in a better marriage, better parenthood, better family, and better society.

PS: Surely, we must preserve the Afghan societal values.




And the pièce de résistance; creating religious edicts to support own agenda.

We can only go by the results we see

The results are making themselves clear, motherhood may just be the most vital job a woman can do, it's not just giving birth to the next generation, it's raising them, teaching them values and principles, culture and faith and building th very basis of society.

And good honourable women, make good honourable wives and marriage is the basis of the family.
The family is the basis of community
The community is the basis of state and civilization


You start breaking down motherhood and the family and you will eventually degrade EVERYTHING



SO
Let's just pick apart the whats happening in the west and wider world.

A mixture of liberalism, feminism, woke culture, degeneracy has created a generation of women who are following a path where motherhood or marriage is SCORNED as a lowly act
Where matching men in the pursuit of education, career, money and achievement is seen as the ultimate goal

So you have BOTH MEN AND WOMEN competing for the same masculine role in society
The expectation of men continues to be about being PROVIDERS AND PROTECTORS
BUT
Women DO NOT maintain femininity and the older they gets, the more aggressive , accomplished, experienced and unyielding they are

I.e utterly unsuitable for marriage and family, unless you want annoying, aggressive, unfeminine, competitive wife whose main purpose in life is the pursuit of her own career over her children and family



In the west what has happened is young women are encouraged to FCUK AROUND
So they start sleeping around with men they find attractive
These men just want to have sex, so women spend their youth, beauty, agency in their teens and 20's screwing around
Until they get desperate in their late 20's and 30's and settle for any dude
However they are used to by then regular random sex with strangers so they make themselves unhappy with the more sedate married stable life, and divorce has SKY ROCKETED


In the west a generation of people are being born, who will never have sex
Never be in a relationship
Never get married
Never have kids

And it's causing a demographic crisis, where they are forced to increase legal migration


MUSLIMS should look at this and learn the lesson and desperately try to maintain our faith, values and culture



None has anything to do with me, it's just a observation of what's happening in the world and west in particular

No need for any of you male feminists to get you panties in a twist

Top Taliban official suggests need for male and female doctors amid medical education ban​

The Frontier Post

KABUL (Amu Tv) : Fasihuddin Fitrat, the Taliban’s chief of army staff, has suggested that Afghanistan’s people need both male and female doctors, a remark seen as an implicit critique of the Taliban leader’s recent decree barring women from pursuing medical education.

Speaking at a ceremony hosted by the Taliban’s Academy of Medical Sciences in Kabul on Thursday, Fitrat emphasized the importance of medical education for the country.

“Studying medicine is an absolute necessity in an Islamic system,” he said, according to a statement released by the Taliban’s Ministry of Defense.

On December 2, Akhundzada ordered the closure of all medical and semi-professional institutions to female students, effectively ending their access to training in health-related fields.

The decision has been widely condemned by domestic and international organizations, which warn of dire consequences for Afghanistan’s already strained healthcare system.

 

[ghazi52]

Human rights groups have criticized the ban, saying it exacerbates an existing shortage of female healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, and midwives.

This, they argue, will have severe repercussions, particularly for women and children in a country where cultural norms often restrict women from seeking care from male practitioners.

Fitrat’s comments mark a subtle divergence from the hardline stance of the Taliban’s supreme leader. While he did not directly criticize the ban, his acknowledgment of the need for female doctors highlights internal contradictions within the Taliban’s policies.

 

[ghazi52]

The Taliban’s restrictions on women’s education and employment have compounded a healthcare crisis in Afghanistan. According to the World Health Organization, the country already faces a critical shortage of healthcare workers, with women comprising a significant portion of the sector before the Taliban’s return to power in 2021.

International organizations, including the United Nations, have urged the Taliban to reverse policies that bar women from education and employment, warning that such measures isolate the country and deepen its humanitarian crisis.

Two years since Taliban banned women from universities: Dreams dashed, futures on hold​

The Frontier Post

KABUL (Amu Tv): Two years have passed since the Taliban banned women and girls from pursuing higher education, a prohibition that has come to symbolize the group’s systemic repression of women.

On December 20, 2022, the Taliban’s Ministry of Higher Education announced that women would be barred from attending public and private universities “until further notice,” citing a decision made by the group’s cabinet.

For many women, the day has since been known as a “black day,” marking the abrupt end of their educational ambitions. Despite the challenges, some still hold out hope that they will one day return to their studies.

Dreams on hold

Mahsa, a young woman who had aspired to become a lawyer, now spends her days confined to her home. “The Taliban want us to marry, have children, cook, and sew,” she said. “But they don’t realize that women make up half of society.

Our demand is simple: let us pursue our dreams and education.” Her words reflect the frustration and despair of thousands of young women whose lives have been upended by the ban. Many say the restrictions have left them feeling isolated and hopeless, as the right to education remains out of reach.

 

[ghazi52]

Global condemnation and calls for action

Heather Barr, deputy director of the Women’s Rights Division at Human Rights Watch, has called the continued closure of educational institutions to women a severe violation of human rights. She urged the international community to take more concrete actions to hold the Taliban accountable.

“It is time for the international community to treat this crisis with the seriousness it deserves,” Barr told Amu News. “Expressions of concern are not enough. We need to see Taliban leaders prosecuted in the International Criminal Court, and nations such as Australia, Canada, Germany, and the Netherlands must follow through on their promises to bring a case to the International Court of Justice for the Taliban’s violations of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women.”

Barr also emphasized the importance of including Afghan women in diplomatic discussions, such as the upcoming Doha talks, and pressing for gender apartheid to be recognized as a crime under international law.

 

[ghazi52]

The emotional toll

For many young women, the ban has taken a significant psychological toll. Students like Savita, who once attended university with hopes of contributing to society, now find their dreams shattered.

“With so much hope, we went to study, aiming to become productive members of society,” Savita said. “But with the closure of universities, all of our goals and aspirations have been destroyed.


The government has turned our lives into rubble.” The ban has also left many women battling depression and other mental health challenges, compounding the already dire situation for Afghan women under Taliban rule.

The Taliban’s decision to bar women from universities has deprived thousands of young women of the chance to build better futures for themselves and their communities.

Many students warn that if the situation persists, they may have no choice but to leave the country, a sentiment echoed by activists who continue to call on the international community to act decisively.

While the Taliban initially framed the ban as a temporary measure, there have been no signs of progress toward reopening schools and universities for women. For women in Afghanistan, the dream of education remains a distant hope, overshadowed by an uncertain future.

What is it with their fetish to ban womankind in Afghanistan? Dogs and Donkeys have more rights than an Afghan woman.

They're gay, or cuckolds, and no one can convince me otherwise.

Taliban’s ban deepens Afghanistan’s crisis​

The Frontier Post

KABUL (Am TV): Two years have passed since the Taliban imposed a sweeping ban on women working in non-governmental organizations (NGOs), a decree that has left many families grappling with poverty and despair. The restriction, issued by the Taliban’s Ministry of Economy in December 2022, barred thousands of women from their jobs and severed a critical lifeline for households across Afghanistan.

For women like Zeenat, the ban has been catastrophic. Once the sole providers for their seven-member family, she and her sister lost their NGO jobs following the decree. “My sister and I were the only ones earning to support our five siblings and sick parents,” Zeenat, a resident of Farah province, said.

“We worked hard for years, studied, and tried to rise above poverty. But when we were dismissed, everything fell apart. Now, with our parents ill and no income, we suffer endlessly. We don’t even know how to provide for ourselves.”
