From Kabul and beyond, a year of Taliban rule in Afghanistan
When you arrive at Kabul International Airport, the first thing you notice is the women, clothed in brown scarves and black cloaks, stamping passports.
สมัครslotxo It's hard to see the details of how these formulas work first. In order to guide decision-making better and reduce risk.
An airfield, which one year ago was the scene of a panicked tide of people desperate to escape, is now much quieter and cleaner. Rows of white Taliban flags flutter in a summer's breeze - billboards of the old famous faces have been painted over.
What lies beyond this gateway to a country which was turned upside down by a swift Taliban takeover?
Kabul, where women are told to give their jobs to men
The messages are startling, to say the least.
"They want me to give my job to my brother," writes one woman on a messaging platform.
"We earned our positions with our experience and education… if we accept this it means we have betrayed ourselves," declares another.
I'm sitting down with a few former senior civil servants from the finance ministry who share their messages.
They're part of a group of more than 60 women, many from the Afghanistan Revenue Directorate, who banded together after being ordered to go home last August.
Fears of famine weigh on rural Ghor
The scene seems idyllic. Sheaves of golden wheat shimmer in a summer's sun in the remote central highlands of Afghanistan. You can hear a gentle lowing of cows.
Eighteen-year-old Noor Mohammad and 25-year-old Ahmad keep swinging their sickles to clear a remaining patch of grain.
"There's much less wheat this year because of drought," Noor remarks, sweat and dirt streaking his young face. "But it's the only job I could find."
A harvested field stretches into the distance behind us. It's been 10 days of backbreaking work by two men in the prime of their life for the equivalent of $2 (£1.65) a day.
"I was studying electrical engineering but had to drop out to support my family," he explains. His regret is palpable.
