A U.N. report on Monday, May 8, 2023 condemned the Taliban for their harsh rule since seizing power in Afghanistan — including public execution, lashings, and amputations — and for ignoring international calls to respect human rights and freedoms.
In the past six months alone, 274 men, 58 women and two boys were publicly flogged in Afghanistan, according to a report by the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, or UNAMA. The Taliban foreign ministry said in response that Afghanistan’s laws are determined in accordance with Islamic rules and guidelines, and that an overwhelming majority of Afghans follow those rules.
