Sources from Khost province have reported that the Taliban has issued a ban preventing women from engaging with media outlets in the region.
A Taliban official in Khost has specifically instructed local media through a written notice not to broadcast or publish content featuring the voices of female contributors.
The directive also includes a warning to media organizations, indicating that failure to comply with this order will result in legal action against them.
This move is part of a broader pattern of restrictions imposed by the Taliban on media operations and the participation of women in media since their return to power in Afghanistan.
