Citizens across Italy, France, Sweden, Germany, and more nations gathered in widespread protests condemning the alleged "genocide of the Hazaras" and "gender apartheid" in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. Fueled by concerns over ISIS attacks targeting Hazaras in Kabul and the Taliban's restrictions on women's rights, demonstrators demanded an end to violence against the Hazara community and the protection of women's freedoms.
In Germany, protesters rallied against the Taliban's detainment of girls, emphasizing the broader issue of women's rights. Calls for international action echoed in Berlin, where demonstrators gathered in front of the German parliament. Rome saw denouncements of the "Hazara Massacre" as the "longest genocide in history," referencing historical atrocities.
Demonstrations in European cities united individuals from various Afghan ethnic groups, highlighting solidarity. Afghan citizens in Stockholm urged the international community to tie aid to Afghanistan to women's rights and ending the alleged Hazara genocide.
Videos shared by Afghan women's groups underscored the unity against perceived Taliban actions, including gender apartheid and ethnic oppression. Despite the Taliban attributing attacks to ISIS and pledging security measures, global protests persist, urging decisive international intervention.
