Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[REGNUM] Taliban officials in Balkh, Takhar and Jowzjan provinces have introduced new restrictions on the transmission of women's voices and music in the media. This is reported by Ariana News with reference to the report of the Committee to Protect Afghan Journalists.

The restrictions apply, in particular, to the appearance on the air of women journalists, as well as women in TV series, films and advertisements in the province of Gore.

In Balkh province, the Taliban for the promotion of virtue and the prevention of vice reportedly banned the broadcasting of music in the media and also ordered women journalists to wear hijab.
They still have jobs and can be seen — not nearly the retreat to the past as elsewhere in the Talib caliphate.
In the province of Takhar, a ban has been announced on the airing of TV series and films in which the faces of women actors are shown. Broadcasting of female voices through the media is also prohibited. In the province of Jowzjan, a ban has been introduced on the broadcasting of music on audio media.

At the same time, the media in the Ghor province were allowed to broadcast music and entertainment programs, but on the condition that Islamic norms were observed in the programs and announcements.

Note that on the 30th of the month of Akrab (November 21), the Taliban Ministry of Education issued an instruction on the publication of video materials in Afghanistan.

According to this instruction, the publication of female images in films and programs is prohibited. One of the points of this instruction states that women journalists in the media must wear hijab, and it is also prohibited on television to broadcast foreign films and series that contradict the laws of Islam.

The Afghan Free Journalists Association previously reported that over the past four months, about 2,000 women journalists in the country have lost their jobs, many of them forced to flee the country.

The vice-president of the association, Abdul Muid Hashemi, named among the main reasons for this economic problems, the security situation and restrictions imposed by the new leadership of the country.
