Female students won’t return to Kabul University until “a real Islamic environment” is provided for all, the Taliban-appointed chancellor said, dealing another blow to women’s rights in Afghanistan since the group came to power last month. The militant group has said that women will be allowed to work and study within the bounds of their interpretation of sharia or Islamic law, indicating a softening of their stance from when they were last in power between 1996 and 2001. However, so far there have been no moves to restore freedoms for women and girls.
