Kauser News Agency has received a tip from intelligence sources that Afghan women’s rights activists in Europe and South Asia are planning to start a new wave of protests by former Afghan female soldiers in Kabul.
The sources are concerned for the safety of the former soldiers, who they say are being targeted by the activists. The activists are reportedly planning to provoke the Taliban into arresting the former soldiers, in order to highlight the Taliban’s violations of women’s rights.
Kauser News Agency interviewed three former Afghan female soldiers who are still in Kabul. They said that they have no security concerns, but they are worried about their financial situation. They have not been paid by the Ministry of Defense in almost two years.
The soldiers also confirmed that they had been contacted by the group of Afghan women’s rights activists in exile. The activists have asked for the soldiers’ personal data, but the soldiers have refused to give it to them.
The intelligence sources say that the activists are planning to coordinate a simultaneous protest in Kabul. They believe that the activists’ intention is to use the arrests of the former soldiers to put pressure on the Taliban.
Kauser News Agency contacted several of the Afghan women’s rights activists in exile via email, but they did not respond.
Samera H. a former Afghan national soldier, said that she is “disgusted” by the actions of the activists. She said that the activists should be “standing up to the Taliban face to face,” instead of putting the former soldiers in danger.
She also called on the United Nations, UNAMA, and the Taliban intelligence services to work together to arrest the activists.
The safety of former Afghan female soldiers is a serious concern. The Taliban has a history of targeting women and girls, and the activists’ plans could put the former soldiers at even greater risk.
The United Nations, UNAMA, and the Taliban intelligence services must take action to protect the former soldiers. They must also investigate the activists’ plans and bring them to justice.
In the meantime, the former soldiers should be wary of any contact from the activists. They should not give out their personal information, and they should not participate in any protests organized by the activists.
