 Child marriages on the rise in Afghanistan: UN warns

Restrictions on Afghan women could increase child marriage by 25%, UN warns

United Nations warning:

The United Nations (UN) has issued a dire warning about the impact of restrictions imposed on Afghan women by the Taliban.


A joint report released by United Nations Women, the International Organization for Migration (IOM), and the United Nations Assistance Program for Afghanistan (UNAMA) stated that child marriage risks increasing by 25% if these restrictions continue.

This two-page report describes the challenges faced by Afghan women and their urgent appeals to the international community.

It emphasizes the ill effects of the Taliban's policies on women's education and overall well-being.

Increasing child marriage:

According to the United Nations, these restrictions not only increase child marriage, but also lead to a 45% increase in early childbearing and a 50% increase in maternal mortality rates.

Furthermore, shocking statistics show that 82% of Afghan women are currently suffering from severe mental health problems. These figures paint a grim picture of the situation facing Afghan women and girls.

Child marriage is a practice that has serious consequences for women's health, education and overall life chances.

They are often forced to drop out of school, increase the risk of domestic violence and health problems, and miss out on their childhood.

The UN warning is a call to action to address the plight of Afghan women and girls.

Urgent measures are needed, such as state pressure on the Taliban, humanitarian assistance focused on access to education and health care for women and girls, and support for organizations working in Afghanistan.

 The road that China is building in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, that road along Siachen is now a global issue The Karakora mountain range is the highest point in the world and thus the Indian Army camp at Siachen is the highest military camp in the world. China is building a road near the camp, which is an Indian land legally owned by Pakistan, and China is now building a road there, which is causing a lot of controversy and tension. The country that is completely stuck here is Pakistan In other words, when Pakistan occupied a part of Kashmir in 1947, the word said was that Pakistan did not occupy Kashmir, we declared "Azad Kashmir" as independent Kashmir, and we are helping them.
