A rare public show of division is emerging in the ranks of Afghanistan's ruling Taliban over restrictions on women in recent months. The bans, including on education for women, have raised an international uproar as Taliban rulers grapple with governing.
The Taliban leadership has been opaque since the former insurgents’ takeover of the country in August 2021, with almost no indication of how decisions are made.
In recent months, the group’s supreme leader, Hibatullah Akhundzada, has appeared to take a stronger hand in directing policy. In particular, it was on his orders that the Taliban government banned women and girls from universities and schools after the sixth grade. The bans raised a fierce international uproar, increasing Afghanistan’s isolation at a time when its economy has collapsed — and worsening a humanitarian crisis. The bans also appeared to contradict previous policies by the Taliban government.Between the Taliban takeover until the December ban on attending universities, women had been allowed to continue their studies.
