For women in particular, returning means living under some of the harshest restrictions of any country &#8211; leaving many fearing that they have no future under the Taliban regime. <\/p>\n<p>#taliban #afghanistan #womeninafghanistan<\/p>\n<p>Chapter Breakdown:<br \/>\n0:00 Afghan women deported from Iran back to Afghan express both fear and hope over their future under the Taliban<br \/>\n3:33 Pashtana Durrani, Afghan feminist and human rights activist, on the lack of rights and opportunities for Afghan women living under Taliban rule<br \/>\n9:13 Ibraheem Bahiss, Afghanistan analyst, Crisis Group Asia Program, on Taliban&#8217;s return to power and how the international community should deal with them<\/p>\n<p>For more news go to: http:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/<\/p>\n<p>Follow DW on social media:<br \/>\n\u25baInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dwnews<br \/>\n\u25baTikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@dwnews<br \/>\n\u25baFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/deutschewellenews\/<br \/>\n\u25baTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/dwnews<\/p>\n<p>F\u00fcr Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/dwdeutsch<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/deutschewelleenglish?sub_confirmation=1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, August 15th, marks four years since the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, which culminated in the fall of Kabul and the withdrawal of US and coalition forces from the country in 2021.
