In a campaign to support women in Afghanistan, a group of Afghan women sent 100 letters to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) on Monday.

According to the organisers of the campaign the dire situation of women oppressed by the Taliban has been explained in these letters.

The writers of these letters have asked the UN Security Council to take immediate action to save Afghan women under the Taliban rule.

According to Razia Barakzai, one of the organisers of the campaign, in the letters, there are cases such as "targeted and continuous killings of women, stoning and beating up of women, sexual assaults, torture, and arbitrary arrests, forced and underage marriages, compulsory hijab, mistreatment, humiliation, and insulting of women”.

Other matters discussed in the letters have been the closure of girls' schools, the ban of women from stadiums and amusement parks, denying women the right to employment, travel, and political participation, and extensive violations of women's human rights.
