At least 52 women and one girl were arrested or detained in the Afghan cities of Herat and Kabul between July and September of 2026, according to a statement released by the United Nations on Thursday. "Women were detained for not wearing a chador [an all-enveloping, cloak-like garment], having visible hair, wearing colourful scarves or makeup, or being in public without a mahram [male chaperone]," the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) said.
