UN condemns Taliban bans on women, threatens to suspend critical aid

"It will only result in further suffering and hardship for all Afghans, especially women and children," he said. "This ban must be lifted." Caitlin McFall is a Reporter at Fox News Digital covering Politics, U.S. and World news.

The UN refugee agency warned that some 500 female staff members work with 19 NGO partners in Afghanistan and serve nearly 1 million women and girls across the nation.
