Ever since the Taliban takeover, the economic situation in Afghanistan has continued to deteriorate. The loss of international aid, rising costs, and high rate of unemployment have led to what the World Bank has called a ‘dire’ situation. Since the Taliban took over Afghanistan, drastic changes have occurred, whether in terms of women’s social rights or citizen work conditions. The country’s deteriorated position was recently highlighted when Kabir Haqmal, who previously worked for the Hamid Karzai government, posted images revealing how many skilled people in the country have been thrown into poverty. Mr. Haqmal uploaded pictures of Musa Mohammadi, an Afghan journalist who sells food on the street to make money, in his tweet.
The photo of Musa Mohammadi, an Afghan journalist has prompted a lot of heartbreak on the internet. A part of the media sector for years is now been selling street food to make the ends meet. Ayoubi shared the photo of Musa Mohammadi, an Afghan journalist. A part of the media sector for years, he has now been selling street food to make ends meet. “A lifetime of Work and struggles as a Journalist ends up like this for the Talented young generation of Afghanistan. It is a damned History repeating itself every few years for Us,” wrote Ayoubi.

The Taliban was in power as soon as America withdrew from Afghanistan and since then the condition of most of the people living there is bad. Last year, the world got to see many frightening scenes from Afghanistan. Many scenes shook people. Now again some pictures have come out, which everyone is surprised to see. These pictures are related to a news anchor, who is forced to sell food on the streets under Taliban rule.
