Taliban Marks Five Years of Power Amid Global Isolation

The Taliban celebrated five years of rule in Afghanistan on August 15, maintaining a defiant stance despite ongoing international concerns regarding human rights and the exclusion of women.

While the regime remains entrenched, global powers are debating the extent of their influence, with some nations cautiously engaging with the Taliban to address humanitarian crises.
