DW News published this video item, entitled “Hopeless Afghan families marry off their teenage girls to older men | DW News” – below is their description.
Ever since the Taliban came to power, the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan have continuously shrinked. The chance that most teenage girls will be able to return to school is dwindling by the day. Under increasing economic pressure, some parents have had to marry off their daughters – often to men much older than their age.
