Afghan journalists face uncertain future under Taliban
Al Jazeera
Journalists question whether to stay or leave, after Afghan Taliban – known for its curbs on media – sweeps to power.
The day after the Taliban seized control of Kabul, Farshad Usyan had the option to evacuate from his native Afghanistan with colleagues from a news agency where he works as a photojournalist. Usyan had little time to mull it over. All he could think about was reaching a safe place so he could later help his family members find safety, too. He headed to the airport, listening to the sounds of gunfire as they drove by crowds outside embassies and at the gates of the country’s only functioning airport.More Related News
