England cricket rejects call for Afghanistan boycott over Taliban assault on women's rights
Monday, 6 January 2025 England's cricket bosses have rejected calls for the team to boycott an upcoming match against Afghanistan over the ruling Taliban regime's assault on women's rights.
In a tense escalation between Afghanistan and Pakistan, the Afghan Taliban has launched missile strikes targeting several points in Pakistan’s border region. This retaliation comes just days after Pakistani airstrikes hit Afghan soil, causing civilian casualties. The Afghan defense ministry has confirmed that the strikes were directed beyond the disputed "hypothetical line" (Durand Line), a border long rejected by Afghanistan. Tensions have been rising as both nations accuse each other of harboring militants responsible for attacks on their respective territories. This new phase of conflict highlights the deep-rooted disputes and challenges in the region.
