Afghanistan is considered to have the worst humanitarian crisis in the world. There is virtually no economy, while the local currency is rapidly losing its value. This is why many parents in Afghanistan are forced to consider selling their daughters to survive. The average price ranges from $1,500 to $2,000, but this is a lot for people deep in debt earning an occasional dollar a day. They say that they will starve and freeze to death if they don't do it. Boys are not up for sale because they can be valuable in the parental home, but girls are given away and married off very often still underaged.

#video#Afghanistan After the Taliban takeover in August 2021, life in Afghanistan changed drastically. The former government fled the country, and sharia law was imposed. As a result, creative people, like artists, musicians, singers, practically became outlaws and struggled to find their place under constant threats. Abbas Alizada, whose story was told in the RT Documentary’s film Dragon of Afghanistan, couldn’t leave the country and now has to hide and change his appearance, so the Taliban doesn’t recognise him. Musicians are having just as hard a time. Under the Taliban, playing music was pronounced ungodly, and musicians were deemed sinners. Singer Aryana Sayeed would have been killed by the Taliban for her art and especially for daring to practice it since she was a woman. Instead, she escaped Afghanistan on a USAF plane the day after Kabul fell. How do the arts survive under the Taliban?

Don’t sell me, mama! #video#Afghanistan Afghanistan is considered to have the worst humanitarian crisis in the world. There is virtually no economy, while the local currency is rapidly losing its value. According to various estimates, about two million families are economic migrants. This is why many parents in Afghanistan are forced to consider selling their daughters to survive. The average price ranges from $1,500 to $2,000, but this is a lot for people deep in debt earning an occasional dollar a day. They say that they will starve and freeze to death if they don't do it. Boys are not up for sale because they can be valuable in the parental home, but girls are given away and married off very often still underaged. Unfortunately, girls don't have a say in the matter of selling. Tune in for the premiere of Don't Sell Me, Mama on RT Documentary. Follow: https://t.me/rtdocumentary

The ups and downs of women’s rights in Afghanistan #video#Afghanistan Can you believe Afghan’s capital, Kabul, was once known as the ‘Paris of Central Asia’, where women dressed in Western clothes and studied and worked alongside men? That’s a far cry from how the things look today. Despite promises to be more respectful and inclusive, the resurgent Taliban are once again imposing restrictions on women, just as they did during their first reign from 1996-2001. Watch our new video now to find out more about Afghan women’s long struggle for rights and how the Taliban is threatening to erase them once again - https://youtu.be/usg8Z0Vlj5s Follow: https://t.me/rtdocumentary

Afghanistan after the US #video#Afghanistan After 9/11, the US proclaimed war on terrorism and opened a hunt for Osama bin Laden, who had found safe haven with Afghan Taliban. The hunt lasted a decade and gradually turned into a full-fledged armed conflict with the Taliban, which hadn't ended when the terrorist was caught in 2011 and executed. At the beginning, the Afghan people were elated to see the American troops as they had high hopes to finally be rid of terrorists. However, soon the situation started to change. The collateral damage of the American presence was immense. The bombs destroyed schools and hospitals, and anti-Taliban air raids killed civilians in the process. By the end of the mission, the casualties numbered in hundreds of thousands. How is depleted Afghanistan surviving now?

#video#Afghanistan During the Taliban's reign in the late 1990s, fashion, music, and cinema were banned. After the Islamists were ousted by a US invasion in 2001, it took years for the Afghan art scene to revive. A group of Afghan designers and models was brave enough to shoot in the streets, displaying traditional garments and talking about their mission. When they were being filmed for the Art at the Stake documentary in 2018, the artists received threats and insults from people who considered their work ‘un-Islamic’. With the Taliban reconquering the country, what will happen to them now? Will Afghanistan’s creative landscape disappear once more? Follow: https://t.me/rtdocumentary

Afghan Kidney Sales #video#Afghanistan Herat Province in Afghanistan is rumoured to have an organ black market. Pushed to the edge by poverty and lack of decent jobs, villagers see no other choice for themselves than to sell a kidney. It would cost around $4,300, which is a huge amount for people who earn $3 to $7 a week. But selling a kidney doesn't solve their problems. Many are so deep in debt the money is hardly enough to pay them off. In addition, poorly performed surgeries often seriously aggravate donors' health, making them unable to take on serious jobs. Muslim elders are against the surgery as it intentionally impairs the body, which Islam forbids. Still, it is hard to convince people not to do it: many think selling a kidney is better than stealing or murder. Do these people have a choice?

The Afghan Woman King #video#Afghanistan “Back then, I had a Kalashnikov, a rifle and shotgun, but a handgun is more convenient. First of all, it's easy to conceal. You can use it in a car, aim it in either direction.” These are not the words of a seasoned soldier. This is Bibi Hokmeena, an Afghan woman, talking about her time as a jihad warrior in the 1980s. Hokmeena is truly an amazing woman full of contradictions. She is a devout Muslim, but has been wearing men’s clothes her entire life. She fights for women’s rights, but she would never condone western values and call herself a feminist. Hokmeena’s never been in love, but is revered by men and women who call her ‘Woman King’.
