The Taliban has announced that it will ban universities for women in Afghanistan. Foreign media reports that the Minister of Higher Education has announced that women will be banned from universities immediately until further notice.

Women have been excluded from most secondary schools on the island, and through these measures, women’s access to formal education has been further restricted. Three months ago, foreign media reported that thousands of girls and women across Afghanistan appeared for university entrance exams.
