Afghanistan in a New Light by Rodrigo Abd

Two years after the Taliban reoccupied Afghanistan, there are strong echoes of life as it was before U.S.-led NATO forces removed them from the government in 2001. Once more the country is ruled by the faction that has restored many of the strict rules it imposed in the 1990s, greatly curtailing daily life and the freedoms of Afghans, specially for women. At the same time, Afghanistan has faded from the international agenda, and since the Taliban’s resurgence a significant amount of humanitarian aid has been reduced, it is now difficult to find any media reflecting and documenting the current situation.'
