Segregation and dress code – strict new rules for studying Afghan women
The Taliban have declared that all universities will be segregated by gender and strict dress codes will be enforced, as the militant group increases their control over Afghanistan
It comes as the country’s new education minister confirms that women will be able to continue studying.
The Taliban also says they wont prevent women from seeking employment… but since taking control of the country they have asked women to stay away from their workplaces until further notice.
This all follows the militant group raising their white flag over Kabul’s presidential palace on Sunday, signalling the official commencement of their reign.
The latest university segregation policy is a significant change from the way Afghanistan was before the Taliban took over.
Prior to August, universities were co-educational, with men and women studying side by side, and there were no dress codes.
Meanwhile, the education minister is standing firm on the decision, saying “we have no problems in ending the mixed-education system, the people are Muslims and they will accept it.”

Trump announces Greenland deal, easing tariff threats amid trade tensions, boosting US markets and sparking Arctic diplomacy debate.
U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a framework deal involving Greenland, stepping back from earlier threats to impose tariffs on Europe. The shift comes after heightened global concern over trade tensions and geopolitical stability.
The announcement followed Trump’s appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos and discussions with NATO’s Secretary General.
Denmark’s Foreign Minister has since weighed in, responding to speculation surrounding Greenland’s future and the implications of US involvement.
Markets reacted positively, with US stocks rallying after Trump signalled he would abandon the tariff threats.
While Trump reiterated he would not use force to acquire Greenland, the move has sparked renewed debate about diplomacy, trade, and influence in the Arctic region.

Coalition cracks deepen as Nationals break ranks over Labor reforms
Nationals senators defy party lines, voting against Labor’s reforms as Coalition faces internal rifts and leadership concerns.
Nationals senators defy party lines, voting against Labor’s reforms as Coalition faces internal rifts and leadership concerns.
A rift has emerged in the Coalition after three Nationals senators crossed the floor to vote against Labor’s post-Bondi hate group reforms, defying party lines and raising questions about their future in the shadow cabinet.
Their proposed amendment calling for greater scrutiny was rejected, and Labor’s legislation passed the Senate 38 votes to 22, cementing the reforms into law despite opposition pushback.
Coalition leadership will meet Wednesday to assess the political fallout, though some MPs consider the issue minor in terms of potential resignations. The incident highlights growing tensions within the party as internal discipline comes under pressure.
