Afghanistan, a country marked by prolonged conflict and political instability, is currently grappling with cross-border violence with neighboring Pakistan. Recent deadly clashes along their shared border have prompted urgent peace talks in Istanbul to establish a lasting ceasefire. Meanwhile, Afghanistan's female football team, which was forced into exile due to Taliban restrictions, is making a significant comeback on the international stage after years of struggle and diplomatic hurdles. These developments highlight both the ongoing security concerns and the resilience of Afghan women in reclaiming their place in sports.
