ICC Issues Arrest Warrants for Taliban Leaders

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has taken a significant step by issuing arrest warrants for key Taliban leaders. This action underscores the international community's concern over the ongoing situation in Afghanistan.

Persecution of Women and Girls

These warrants are a direct response to the documented and pervasive persecution of women and girls under Taliban rule. The ICC's decision highlights the severity of human rights abuses occurring in the region.

The warrants serve as a strong message that such actions will not go unpunished and that international justice mechanisms are in place to hold perpetrators accountable.
