Violence reportedly breaks out as Afghan women braved the Taliban-controlled streets of Kabul on Saturday to demand equal rights

A small group of Afghan women braved the Taliban-controlled streets of Kabul once more on Saturday to demand equal rights and the ability to participate in government, CNN has confirmed.

In a bold public challenge to the militant group's rule, female activists have staged at least three small demonstrations across the country in the past week. Footage shared by Afghan news network TOLO news Saturday showed a confrontation between Taliban guards and some of the women. In the video, a man on a megaphone is heard telling the small crowd"we will pass your message to the elders." His voice appears to be calm.

بايدن وحكومته يحتاجون مصحات نفسيه وتعجز فيهم رئيس ابله ومغفل بكل المقاييس

It depends on what exactly they refer to as equal rights. Somes rights are not rights

Proof we armed and trained the wrong people. We should have armed and trained the women in Afghanistan. They’d actually have a backbone and fight

This is what real women oppression is! An abortion bill saving a baby is not!!

Texas schools have amassed more than 50,000 confirmed coronavirus cases in students in just a couple of weeks. More than a dozen school districts have closed temporarily as a result of the disease, and Texas is a leader in child deaths from COVID-19 with 59 as of Sept. 3.

Now they have to fight for their rights like women in other countries do to, including the US.

Are you kidding me CNN wouldn’t know the truth if it spit on them.

So, gentlemen, is Biden a murderer?

Seems more like the heading would be “Brave Afghan woman beheaded by Taliban-controlled groups as they demanded for equal rights” or is that just Western media that got me thinking like that 🤷🏾‍♂️

It’s amazing how a certain party in this country is spending tax payers money to take away rights of the people to vote and freedom of choice!and let’s be open about this the big (R) has gotten out of hand and out of touch with real life issues.

I hear a lot of ppl complaining about how awful the taliban are with regards to women's rights in Afghanistan yet those same ppl refuse to stand up for women's rights here in America, ppl who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

More dramatisation of news. Meanwhile rights of Texas women are trampled and we still obsess with Afghanistan after humiliating withdrawal with our tails between our legs

I wonder what Joe Biden is going to do about all these women being slaughtered in the streets

So sad so many Afgan men and women probably will have to die before equality will be achieved.

I think the Afghan women need to figure out how to get the hell out of there.

Good be with them♥️

Go Ladies!

US army should have trained women in 20 yrs to fight,fly and rule .empowering them would have saved Afghan..

Afghan women are braver than the men.

If only the Afghani men had the same courage as their women, the country wouldn't have been so easily handed over to the Taliban.

we invaded , occupy , torture for 20 yrs now we are mother ther.....

This is what I worried about. My sister, I pray for you here. I pray for your strength and a change for you and all women in your country. I so sorry this is happening.

PEACE

The young, attractive protesters will be sold into sexual slavery. The rest will be quietly beheaded. In either case they will never be seen again.

V kl

But they promised...

We should have trained the women to be soldiers.

What If Some Suicide Bomber Blows Up Protesters.,

Good for them!

To the female population of Texas, stand-up for your rights as a female.

We must let go and allow other countries to do what they do. Their culture. We are done trying to change others. We have our own so called educated society full of Weirdos, Cult members, haters, wack jobs, and we aint perfect either. We are all a basket full here..

CheriJacobus Bless those Afghani women.

É lamentável isso td que o Afeganistão está passando.

The Taliban and Republicans have something in common, they oppressed women.

maura_resister Arm the Afghan Women

The problem we may be seeing is leadership that knows excluding women from the economy is bad, but soldiers on the street who want to go with full sharia law the way they did in the 1990s.

They don't have w Women within government circles Doubt they will have respect or rights from Taliban. Alas same old

Believing the Taliban is like believing Joe😅

This is on POTUS BidenisaFailure

It appears that women are the real warriors in Afghanistan! Good on them!! I wish we could help them all!

Taliban can make fake news to be real

Ko Zeyar(40) & U HlaTun(70) were violently beaten & Abducted by SAC due to false accusations of Military Sponsored Informants in making traditional handmade guns in Kwantheechaung village,WarKhema Tsp, Ayeyarwady . Sep4Coup WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

Révolution from locals !!!!!’ Thé generation will be lost but the next will honnor the sacrifice !!!’

They fight there we fight the misogynistic Republican Party here.

On Thursday , a small group of women marched toward the office of the governor of Herat , to demand equal rights and opportunities .

Who started it?

Taliban spokesmen in recent days have admitted women are unlikely to get cabinet posts or positions of authority in the new administration.

POTUS JoeBiden VP PressSec - we should find someway to help the citizens who want freedom just like Americans. This will also show the world America is back and we support freedom. Not suggestion a war, we shouldn't go full doors closed either like former guy did.

Sounds like it could be America.

Wait you guys really thought they would give women equal rights? Lmao

Gathering near the Arg presidential palace , the women demanded access to education , the right to return to work and a role in governing the country ' Freedom is our motto .It makes us proud ', read one of their signs .
