Despite their ideological proximity, the Taliban and the terrorist militia “Islamic State” are in competition with each other in Afghanistan. A Taliban governor has died in the northern Afghan province of Balkh. Investigations would be initiated.
The governor, who belongs to the Taliban, died in an explosion in the northern Afghan province of Balch. This was confirmed by Taliban spokesman Sabihullah Mujahid. Mujahid spoke of an attack. Investigations would be initiated.
In the past, the terrorist militia Islamic State (IS) has repeatedly carried out attacks against the Taliban, who have been back in power in Afghanistan since August 2021. Despite their ideological affinity, the two groups are enemies and they are competing for supremacy in the crisis-ridden Afghanistan.
Taliban called to respect human rights
Since they came to power, reports of the Taliban’s atrocities have surfaced time and time again. Foreign ministers from more than 20 countries called on the militant Islamist Taliban in Afghanistan to reverse all decisions and practices that restrict women and girls from exercising their human rights and fundamental freedoms. In Afghanistan, respect for the human rights of women and girls has declined most in the world over the past year and a half, according to a statement.
Afghan women and girls are denied access to education, public and political spaces, and job opportunities. They are also now prohibited from visiting public parks and gyms. At the end of the year, the Taliban banned Afghan women from working in non-governmental organizations, with the exception of a few areas.
