News Center- This year, Afghan women celebrate the International Women’s Day, March 8, under the Taliban's misogynistic rules. Mahrameh Qadri, an activist for children’s rights in Afghanistan, sent NuJINHA a message. She is one of the Afghan women, who were forced to leave the country after the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan. Despite living in exile, she never forgets the women and children of her country; she makes great efforts to stand with them and make their voices heard all around the world.

“Today is March 8, International Women’s Day. The brutal Taliban took over the country with the support of puppet and treacherous governments. Since then, Afghan women have been oppressed by the Taliban,” Mahrameh Qadri said in the message.

‘Afghan women never bow down like their Kurdish and Iranian sisters’

In her message, Mahrameh Qadri emphasized that Afghan women would never bow to the Taliban’s oppression. “Afghan women never bow down to anti-feminist laws or Islamists such as ISIS, the Taliban, Al-Qaeda and Mullahs, like their Kurdish and Iranian sisters. Although they are subjected to many inhuman practices such as arrest, torture, execution and assassination, they are determined to fight more. Women all over the world must unite to free us from these oppressive fundamentalists and Islamists and turn March 8 into a day of solidarity and global struggle.”
