Afghanistan Marks 25 Years Since US-Led Invasion

Original: Afghanistan: 25 Years Since the US-Led Invasion

It has been 25 years since the US-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, which toppled the Taliban government after the September 11 attacks. Human Rights Watch marked the anniversary, prompting renewed discussion of the war's two-decade legacy, the chaotic US withdrawal in 2021, and the Taliban's return to power alongside the ongoing humanitarian and human rights crisis facing Afghans, particularly women and girls.

Why now: The 25th anniversary of the invasion has prompted human rights groups and commentators to reassess the war's legacy and Afghanistan's current situation under Taliban rule.
