Afghanistan: Inside a school for girls – but will Taliban allow it?

International Editor

Three thousand Islamic scholars and Taliban leaders will gather for policy talks in the Afghan capital Kabul tomorrow – and high on their agenda will be girls’ education and forming a more inclusive government – issues which the international community is putting pressure on the Taliban.

Women won’t be allowed to attend, instead the organisers said they’d be represented by male delegates.

But the elusive Emir Sheikh Hibatullah Akhunzada, who never appears in public, is expected to be there.
