Afghanistan: What is daily life like now?

We get the latest from Afghanistan

As the United Nations warns that Afghanistan is facing a major humanitarian crisis, we look at what daily life is now like in the country. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ has obtained and verified video footage showing civilians being killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan. We get more details from our colleagues. And we look at the Afghan women's online campaign to protest Taliban dress code. It comes after the Taliban said women will be allowed to continue their studies, but classrooms will be gender-segregated and strict Islamic dress code will be mandatory. We hear from some of the women affected by the new rules.

Also, a new report says a record number of environmental and land rights activists were murdered last year. We speak to activists around the world about the threats they are facing.

And Dr Eleanor Murray - assistant professor of epidemiology at Boston University School of Public Health – answers your questions on the latest coronavirus stories.
