Afghan women will be allowed to study at university under Taliban rule — but not in the same room as any men. The Taliban’s ban on mixed classes comes after the militant group vowed to rule differently to when they were last in power in the 90s when women and girls were prohibited from going to school. “The… people of Afghanistan will continue their higher education in the light of Sharia law in safety without being in a mixed male and female environment,” the Taliban’s acting education minister, Abdul Baqi Haqqani, said Sunday, according to Agence France-Presse.
