Zan News: Local sources in Ghazni report that Khalid Hanafi, the Taliban's Minister for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, has forbidden journalists in the province from taking photos, citing the group's new law.

According to media reports, Hanafi visited Ghazni province on Sunday (September 8th) to oversee and enforce the new law.

Sources added that during a meeting in the province, Hanafi banned photography and videography.

This comes as articles 17 and 22 of the Taliban's new law on the promotion of virtue and the prevention of vice prohibit the photographing of humans and animals. Previously, the Taliban had banned the painting of human faces and the depiction of animals in various provinces of the country.

Following the approval of the new law by the Taliban leader, the activities of national television in Kandahar were halted due to the display of images of living beings. This move by the Taliban has raised concerns among journalists, with some warning that these restrictions could lead to the closure of media outlets in Afghanistan.
