Blending Perspectives from Every Continent
P-AM sources report that in the Panjshir Valley, the Afghan Taliban, fearing Pakistani airstrikes, are allegedly concealing military equipment inside schools, turning spaces meant for learning into combat zones. As a consequence, many schools have closed, leaving children out of education and families living in constant fear. The report characterizes these actions as a violation of international law and accuses the group of using civilians, particularly children, as human shields. Residents feel trapped, with their safety and the region’s future at grave risk due to the authorities’ perceived recklessness.
