“The Taliban did not happen in a vacuum and nor are they a presumed natural outcome of Afghan culture. They are a product of decades of foreign powers’ interference and failure.” @Durkhanai at the @CityofAdelaide’s reception for Afghanistan Independence Day 🇦🇫

Tomorrow at the #UNSC, the US & other countries must vote to #BanTalibanTravel. The Taliban are grossly violating the rights of #AfghanWomen, girls, and others yet continue to be allowed to travel freely. It is time to hold them accountable: https://t.co/3EiLVP9yLM.

Naan and kebab meant conversations, laughter. It encapsulated the gregariousness that defines Afghan culture, in the communal rituals of preparation and eating together https://t.co/MdjgNRD4Q4 beautiful read by @minasharif and Durkhanai Ayubi

Let's be clear: the U.S. is a combatant in Russia's war on Ukraine, with all possible implications, foreseen and unforeseen (in Washington), in play. The American public remains largely in the dark.
Breaking News: The U.S. has provided intelligence that has helped Ukraine target and kill many Russian generals who have died in the war, officials said.
