Mina Ahmed's children play in their house at Salar village, Wardak province, Afghanistan, Sunday, October 24, 2021.In urban centers, public discontent toward the Taliban is focused on threats to personal freedoms, including the rights of women. In Salar, these barely resonate. The ideological gap between the Taliban leadership and the rural conservative community is not wide. Many villagers supported the insurgency and celebrated the Aug. 15 fall of Kabul which consolidated Taliban control across the country. (Photo by Oriane Zerah/AP Photo)
