In the newest decree restricting women’s rights and liberties, Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers on Tuesday forbade female students from attending universities, effective immediately.
The Taliban have widely enforced their rigid version of Islamic law, or Sharia, despite having first promised a more moderate government that respected the rights of women and minorities.
They have banned girls from attending middle and high school, barred them from the majority of jobs, and required them to dress completely in public. Parks and gyms also forbid women’s entry.

A coalition led by the United States overthrew the Taliban in 2001 for sheltering Osama bin Laden, but they retook control following the tumultuous withdrawal of the United States last year.
The decision was made following a government meeting.
According to a letter shared by the Ministry of Higher Education’s spokesman, Ziaullah Hashmi, private and public universities should implement the restriction as soon as feasible and notify the ministry once it is in place.
The decision is certain to hurt efforts by the Taliban to win recognition from potential international donors at a time when the country is mired in a worsening humanitarian crisis. The international community has urged Taliban leaders to reopen schools and give women their right to public space.
The university ban comes weeks after Afghan girls took their high school graduation exams, even though they have been banned from classrooms since the Taliban took over the country last year.
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the decision, calling it another “broken promise” from the Taliban and a “very troubling” move.
Robert Wood, the deputy U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, said the Taliban cannot expect to be a legitimate member of the international community until they respect the rights of all Afghans.
According to US National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson, the US likewise condemned the Taliban’s move.
Afghanistan’s U.N. seat is still held by the previous government led by former President Ashraf Ghani, despite the Taliban’s request to represent the country at the United Nations, which was recently deferred again.
Afghanistan’s charge d’affairs Naseer Ahmed Faiq said at the U.N. that the announcement “marks a new low in violation of most fundamental and universal human rights for all of humanity.
