A group of girls wearing full hijab were run over by Taliban members using a vehicle in Afghanistan, according to a report circulating on Telegram. The circumstances and number of casualties are not yet independently confirmed.
A single unverified report, relayed by the source 'reports' from a secondary source identified as '301 (Arab world on Telegram)', describes an incident in Afghanistan in which Taliban members allegedly ran over a group of girls wearing full hijab with a vehicle. No location, time of day, number of victims, or outcome — injuries or fatalities — are stated. The report has not been corroborated by any independent source, Afghan or international. The Zioneer previously reported on two other Taliban-related incidents in Afghanistan earlier today: the killing of at least two protesters at a women's rights demonstration, and a separate rare protest in Herat where casualties were reported. Both of those bulletins remain based on unverified accounts. The present report, if confirmed, would represent a further instance of Taliban forces targeting women or girls in public, though its veracity is still open.
