Zan News: The Women's Committee of the Afghanistan Journalists Support Organization has stated in first six-month report of the solar year 1403 that the human rights situation in the country has deteriorated.

The organization released this report on Wednesday (October 9), stating that it had obtained information about the increasing violation of human rights by the Taliban through distributing online questionnaires to Afghan women both inside and outside the country.

According to the report, 93.5% of respondents believe that the human rights situation has worsened in the first six months of this year.

A total of 107 Afghan women participated in this survey; 91 of them live in 19 provinces of Afghanistan and 17 others live abroad.

According to the organization's information, 62.6% of respondents have witnessed violence or violations of their fundamental rights by the Taliban. Approximately 70% of those who have been subjected to violence have refrained from providing evidence due to fear and security challenges.

Additionally, 92.5% of respondents predicted that the human rights situation would worsen in the next six months. However, 37% of survey participants stated that their rights had not been violated.

The Women's Committee of the Afghanistan Journalists Support Organization emphasized that since the Taliban regained power, Afghan women and girls have been deprived of their basic rights, including the right to education and work.

The organization also pointed out that the international community has only condemned the violation of human rights in the country by the Taliban, but these condemnations have not yielded positive results.

According to the report, international human rights organizations have consistently called for increased pressure on the Taliban to respect women's rights, but the international community's response has been limited.

The organization believes that only sustained support from the international community can "reverse the Taliban's cruel policies" against Afghan women.

This report comes as some international organizations have previously expressed concern about the deteriorating human rights situation in the country.
