  • 3 years ago
The Taliban have announced a 'caretaker' government that will be led by Mullah Mohammad Hasan Akhund, with key roles being given to designated global terrorists, including the dreaded Haqqani Network. Hours after the announcement of Taliban government, women have been banned from the sports. A Taliban spokesperson said women cannot participate in sports, including cricket. Ahmadullah Wasiq, deputy head of the Taliban's cultural commission, told media that sports activities are not necessary for women as these would expose their bodies to the media. Watch.
