Taliban restrict Afghans going abroad, raises concern from U.S. and UK
KABUL, Feb 28 (Reuters) – The Taliban administration’s announcement that it would restrict Afghans from leaving the country under certain circumstances drew concern from the United States and the United Kingdom this week amidst fears they could hamper ongoing evacuation efforts.
The Taliban administration’s spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid had said at a media conference on Sunday that Afghans would not be allowed to leave the country unless they had a clear destination and that women could not travel overseas for study without a male guardian.
