The Taliban’s ban on images and videos of “living things” will make it harder to cover Afghanistan, journalists in the country said.
The Afghan ministry for vice and virtue has directed media platforms in Maidan Wardak, Kandahar and Takhar provinces to not show images of “living things with a soul”, taken as meaning people and animals. On Thursday, a new province Helmand joined the list and banned all media from showing images of living things to ensure compliance with the Taliban's morality laws.
