Inside the new Afghanistan: FRANCE 24's exclusive look at life under the Taliban

THE DEBATE © FRANCE 24

What's it really like inside the new Afghanistan? Four months after the fall of Kabul to the Taliban, FRANCE 24 went to the capital and beyond to speak to citizens from all walks of life. What they heard was a mix: relief that the guns have gone quiet but worry over the prospect of a bleak winter, with more than half the population facing acute food shortages.

Meanwhile, Afghanistan remains isolated on the world stage and its new rulers have yet to let women return to school and work. The Taliban also still have to prove that they can run a country.

Produced by Charles Wente, Juliette Laurain and Léopoldine Iribarren.
