Female activist opposes ban on girls’ education in Afghanistan
A female activist in Afghanistan has spoken out openly against the Taliban’s harsh policies restricting girls’ education in the country and called for strict action against the ban, ANI News reports.
Fatima Amiri, a survivor of the attack on the Kaaj Education Centre and a strong advocate for girls’ education, strongly criticised the suspension of scholarships for Afghan girls. The activist also demanded that alternative education options should be considered rather than prohibitive policies in the country.
At an online conference on girls’ education in Afghanistan, Amiri said there must be a constant struggle against the normalisation of the ban on education. She said that opposition to girls’ education stems from an attitude of gender apartheid that affects decades, not just hundreds or millions.
Amiri studied in an elite class at the Kaaj Education Centre, which was the target of a terrorist attack in September 2022 that killed more than 60 students and seriously injured her. She is currently undergoing treatment in Turkey. Fatima and her classmates took their university entrance exams about a month after the attack, attracting public attention for their university admissions. However, the Taliban barred the girls from continuing their education.

I get why people are talking about the whole submarine titanic thing.
It's awful.
But I'm here to address a different boat related tragedy.
One that absolutely breaks my heart.
Where a boat of migrants sank off the coast of Greece.
This boat had 300 Pakistanis and more than 500 Syrians.
The boat was carrying migrants from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria and Egypt who were fleeing their countries dire economic conditions.
And we're trying to reach relatives in Europe.
What happened with the submarine is a terrible thing.
I just wish this story got the same coverage.
One is about billionaires the other about people escaping economic disasters.
Both about people losing their lives.

DEATH TOLL IN AFGHAN EARTHQUAKE RISES AS BODIES ARE PULLED FROM THE RUBBLE
According to Afghan Taliban officials, more than 2'400 people have been killed in a devastating 6.3 magnitude Earthquake that hit the drought-stricken Herat region of Afghanistan on Saturday. The Herat region of Afghanistan is home to more than 1.9 million Afghans and the region is renowned for its abundant, top quality crops.
According to a statement from the United Nations Humanitarian Office, all of the homes in the Zindajan district of Herat have been leveled, burying survivors in rubble, leaving many homeless throughout the region as winter approaches, and creating major challenges for aid organizations to provide food, clothing and shelter.
Afghans are already suffering under a crushing sanctions regime imposed by the Biden Administration, complicating rescue and aid efforts for the Taliban government while the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank have suspended aid to the impoverished country which had been occupied by US and NATO forces for two decades.
"The operation is still going on, still some people are being pulled out of the rubble,” the spokesman of Heart’s governor, Nissar Ahmad Elyias told reporters.
"Many people have come from far-flung districts to get people out from the rubble,” said Khalid, 32, at Kashkak in Zindajan district 30 kilometers northwest of Herat city, capital of the same-named province.
“Everyone is busy searching for bodies everywhere, we don’t know if there are others as well under the debris.”
“Many of our family members have been martyred, including one of my sons, and my other son is also injured,” Herat resident Mir Ahmed told Reuters at a hospital that was treating many survivors.
“Most of the people are under the rubble.”

Afghans leave Pakistan ahead of deadline
A huge number of Afghans headed to the Pakistani border to return home hours before a deadline set by the Pakistani government. Illegal residents must leave the country or face deportation,
The deadline is part of a new crackdown on migrants, according to Islamabad. However, the measure applies to Afghans, who comprise the majority of migrants in Pakistan.
Pakistani officials warn that people staying in the country illegally will face arrest and deportation from November 1. UN agencies say there are more than 2 million undocumented Afghans living in Pakistan, at least 600,000 of whom have fled since the Taliban took power in 2021.
The campaign comes amid strained relations between Pakistan and the Taliban rulers. Islamabad accuses Kabul of closing its eyes to militant Taliban allies who take refuge in Afghanistan to organise attacks in Pakistan. The Taliban denies the accusations.

A powerful earthquake struck a rural, mountainous region of eastern Afghanistan near the Pakistani border early Wednesday, killing at least 920 people and injuring 600 others, authorities said. Officials warned the death toll would likely rise.
Information remained scarce on the magnitude 6.1 temblor that damaged buildings in Khost and Paktika provinces. Rescue efforts are likely to be complicated since many international aid agencies left Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover of the country last year and the chaotic withdrawal of the U.S. Military from the longest war in its history.
Neighboring Pakistan's Meteorological Department said the quake's epicenter was in Afghanistan's Paktika province, just near the border and some 50 kilometers (31 miles) southwest of the city of Khost. Such temblors can cause severe damage, particularly in an area like this one where homes and other buildings are poorly constructed and landslides are common.
