Violence erupted in Jalalabad, Afghanistan, after the Taliban fired into a crowd and beat up protesters for replacing their flag, witnesses say. Follow live updates.
After the Taliban reclaimed control of Afghanistan, many women fear for their safety, including those who worked as journalists for all these years.
Despite these fears, female journalists from TOLO, an Afghan news organization, reported from the streets of Kabul as seen in a tweet by Saad Mohseni, director of Moby Media Group, which oversees multiple Afghan platforms including TOLO, and operates across the middle east and south-central Asia. Miraqa Popal, Head of News at TOLO, also tweeted a photo of their broadcast with a female anchor on air, followed by another tweet showing the newsroom's morning meeting that included female journalists.
But many still fear a return to the dark days, with some female journalists having already left the country in the wake of the Taliban’s resurgence.
