Afghanistan's Taliban government imposes smartphone ban on government officials
Afghanistan's Taliban government has banned civil servants from using smartphones in government institutions, effective June 16. Violators face cellphone confiscation and legal punishment. This move has already disrupted official work, with many administrative processes halted. Rights activists warn the ban could further limit access to vital information and communication for Afghans, marking another step in the Taliban's control over public life.
