Sources shared a list identifying 92 women whose positions were canceled, noting that the total number affected is higher. The dismissals followed three months of unpaid salaries, and dismissed staff were reportedly informed they are no longer entitled to payment. Sources state that the Taliban intend to replace the removed women with individuals aligned with the group.
