Taliban's Decrees

The Taliban’s decrees are laws and rules they enforce based on their interpretation of Islamic principles. These decrees often involve strict dress codes, restrictions on women and girls’ rights, bans on entertainment and education for some groups, and limitations on freedom of speech. They aim to create a society governed by their version of Islamic law, often at the expense of individual freedoms. These measures have drawn international criticism for their impact on human rights, especially for women and minorities, and have led to fears about increased repression and reduced personal freedoms in areas under their control.
