Aghanistan has seen significant changes since the Taliban imposed a ban on education for girls older than 12. Nearly five years later, new laws continue to restrict women’s freedoms, but many Afghan women refuse to surrender.

Special correspondent Leila Molana-Allen and videographer Eric O’Connor shed light on the bravery of these women. They visited a clandestine school in Kabul, a place where young Afghan girls continue their education despite the risks involved.

These women courageously stand up against the restrictive rules. They put their safety on the line to ensure that Afghan girls have a chance at a better future. Their efforts highlight the ongoing struggle for women’s rights in Afghanistan.

Leila Molana-Allen, a seasoned reporter, brings her experience from the Middle East and Africa to cover these critical stories. Reporting from regions like Beirut and Baghdad, she continues to be a voice for those resisting oppression.
