15:47Now PlayingIn a shocking escalation of its oppressive policies, the Taliban regime in Afghanistan has introduced a series of new "vice and virtue" laws that further strip women of their basic humanity. The most alarming aspect of these draconian measures is the ban on women's voices in public, effectively silencing half the population. According to the new laws, "Whenever an adult woman leaves her home out of necessity, she is obliged to conceal her voice, face, and body." This latest decree goes beyond previous restrictions, now forbidding women from speaking in public, singing, or even reading aloud within their own homes. Women are also prohibited from looking directly at unrelated men and must be accompanied by a male escort when traveling. The laws extend to punishing taxi drivers who transport unaccompanied women. These new restrictions compound an already extensive list of bans on Afghan women. As the Taliban tightens its grip on Afghan society, reintroducing practices like public flogging and stoning for adultery, the future for women and girls in the country looks increasingly bleak, with many describing the situation as a form of "gender apartheid."
