Oyogist has learned that Women Taliban has ordered Afghanistan presenters and reporters on TV channels to cover their faces while presenting news on air.
On Sunday, May 22, Afghan female reporters went on air with their faces covered in line with a Taliban order after disobeying the other just a day before.
According to the BBC, a presenter said women working in the TV industry had resisted but their employers had come under pressure.
The women wore hijabs and face-covering veils, to present and report news bulletins and other programmes across popular channels such as TOLOnews, Ariana Television, Shamshad TV and 1TV.
Since seizing power from the Afghan government last year, the Taliban have increasingly imposed restrictions on women’s lives.
