Tourist highlights everyday activities that are now illegal for women in Afghanistan

A tourist has highlighted the everyday things that have been made illegal in Afghanistan since the Taliban took over the country.

Chloé Jade, who visited in October 2022, has documented the painful reality for residents, especially women.

In the clip, she listens to music, walks through parks, and is seen outside the home without wearing a hijab - all of which are prohibited under Taliban rule.

She also draws attention to how girls are banned from most forms of schooling.
