Every month AANCast dives into some of our longer reports, to give you a flavour of our more in-depth reporting, in discussion with a range of authors. This month, we’re looking at the International Criminal Court issuing of arrest warrants for two of the leaders of Islamic Emirate for the international crime of gender persecution, with Rachel Reid and Ehsan Qaane, while AAN’s Kate Clark talks us through her report on the impact of massive American aid cuts to Afghanistan, and Roxanna Shapour pulls out a gem from AAN’s massive archive, a report delving into the question: Why don’t most Afghan men like naming their wives and daughters in public?
ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan announces that his office has asked the court to issue warrants of arrest for the Emirate’s Supreme Leader and Chief Justice.
