Taliban Regime Bans Female Authors' Works From University Curricula in Afghanistan

Afghanistan's Taliban-run government has banned books written by female authors from university curricula, a move confirmed by a member of the committee reviewing textbooks. This decision is part of efforts to restrict the influence of women in education and culture. The ban aims to enforce strict Islamic laws and limit the dissemination of ideas perceived as threatening to the country's conservative values. The move has sparked concerns over censorship and the suppression of female voices in Afghanistan's academic landscape.
