KABUL: Afghan women wearing full face veils sat in rows at a Kabul university lecture theatre on Saturday (Sep 11), pledging commitment to the Taliban's hardline policies on gender segregation

About 300 women - covered head-to-toe in accordance with strict new dress policies for education - waved Taliban flags as speakers railed against the West and expressed support for the Islamists' policies.

Large Taliban flags flanked the podium, as the female speakers criticised women who have protested across Afghanistan in recent days. "Is it freedom to like the last government? No, it is not freedom. The last government were misusing women. They were recruiting women just by their beauty," she claimed.

"Those not wearing the hijab are harming all of us," she said, referring to the headscarves worn by many Muslim women.Omari concluded her speech by leading a chorus of"Allahu Akbar", or"God is greatest"."After this we will not see 'bihijabi' ," she said.

Seriously, I can’t tell if they are really women or just bunch of men.

If you are going to beat me and kill my family, I might just wear a hijab and say I'm pro tali-rrist too. Either you like S&M or you're being threatened. No sane mind chooses subjugation over freedom.

Well done! Now taliban is also more sophisticated than last time, able to roll out propaganda to support their rule…great job!!!😷

Half of them are guys...

I won’t take the bate.

I doubt this bs

Fake

roll model covid compliance crowd. now I understand it was right if CCP to have unleashed the virus on the world. al we have to do is follow this roll model.

Ya countering the West propaganda!

The US abandoned Afghanistan after 20 years of brutal and barbaric occupation. The Taliban came back with little resistance because of US betrayal of Afghan people.

How can you recognize they are Afghan women ? Please don’t call them Afghan Women, Afghan women are more brave than these slave of Taliban, Afghan women fight for their rights on the streets of Kabul not hiding their face like them, Never ever trust Taliban please 💔🙏🥺😔
