27:09Now PlayingIn a chilling declaration confirming the Taliban's return to their notoriously oppressive policies against women, Afghanistan's reclusive Supreme Leader Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada vowed in a voice message aired on state television to reinstitute barbaric punishments like public stonings and floggings, brazenly telling the West "You say it's a violation of women's rights when we stone them to death, but we will soon implement the punishment for adultery. We will flog women in public. We will stone them to death in public." The Taliban leader, who has almost no digital footprint and has never been seen in public aside from old portraits, defiantly stated "These are all against your democracy, but we will continue doing it...We fought against you for 20 years, and we will fight 20 and even more years against you" as he emphasized the need for resilience in opposing women's rights among Taliban soldiers. Akhundzada's harrowing remarks enraged many Afghans, with one woman named Tala lamenting from Kabul "We, the women, are living in prison, and the Taliban are making it smaller for us every passing day" and criticizing how "The money that they receive from the international community as humanitarian aid is just feeding them against women." The Supreme Leader's defiant vows confirm fears of a reversal of human rights in Afghanistan under Taliban rule following the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.
