An Afghan love story
From the fall of Kabul, to falling in love
Aalia Farzan of 蜜芽传媒 Afghan Services left her life in Afghanistan after the Taliban retook the country in 2021 and came to London, and it was there she met her now husband. She speaks about this unlikely love story and sheds some light on what Afghan courtship entails. Plus, Ilona Hromliuk of 蜜芽传媒 Ukrainian has spoken to women who travel thousands of miles across Ukraine to go on a date with their husbands who are fighting on the frontlines.
