Afghan teenage girls and young women have come forward with disturbing allegations of sexual assault by the Taliban after being arrested for wearing "bad hijab." These reports have emerged just days before a UN summit on Afghanistan, where Afghan women are set to be excluded from discussions on women's rights. According to accounts from the Afghan news service Zan Times, several young women who were detained earlier this year for their attire have revealed that they were subjected to sexual violence and assault while in custody. Tragically, some of these incidents of abuse led to suicide attempts by the victims. The harrowing testimonies shed light on the dire situation faced by Afghan women under Taliban rule, highlighting the urgent need for international attention and action to address these human rights violations.
