Tarz Press: Three days have passed since the significant developments in Lebanon, where Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, was killed, and many global nations have declared their positions regarding Israel’s actions. However, the Taliban have remained completely silent on the matter.

Three years have passed since the Taliban returned to power in Afghanistan, and during this period, women have faced one of the darkest chapters of their lives. After the Taliban took control, Afghan women, who were previously on a path of growth and development, quickly encountered a wave of restrictions, suppression, and deprivation.  

Islam, a religion that emphasizes justice and equality between men and women, has always supported the education and acquisition of knowledge for women. Contrary to the narrow-minded views currently prevailing in certain regions, the history of Islam is filled with examples showing that women were not only encouraged to learn but also played a key role in educating and nurturing generations.

Reports indicate that Iran is tactically retreating from a retaliatory strike against Israel following military pressure from the United States. This cautious retreat seems to be an effort to avoid damaging Iran’s reputation as an Islamic Republic while also managing both domestic and international reactions more effectively.

Three years ago, on August 15, the fragile foundations of the Republic crumbled, and the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan. Three days ago, to mark this anniversary, the Taliban showcased their strength with special programs, military parades, exhibitions, and city patrols, accompanied by special a cappella songs, in Kabul and 33 other provinces.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman congratulated Iran's new president, Masoud Pezeshkian, on his election victory in a phone call. 

While the Taliban have been included in Russia's list of terrorist organizations since 2003, Russian President Vladimir Putin recently stated that the Taliban are allies of Russia in the fight against terrorism.
