SocietyUNESCO: 2.4 million girls barred from school in Afghanistan

UNESCO says about 2.4 million Afghan girls have been denied secondary education since the Taliban returned to power in 2021, an increase of roughly 200,000 in a year. The agency warns the number could approach four million by 2030, with lasting social and economic costs if the ban continues.
