A new UN report has said nearly 400 civilians have been killed in attacks in Afghanistan since the Taliban takeover, more than 80 percent by groups affiliated with ISIL (ISIS).

The first major human rights report since the Taliban won the power of the former US-backed government in August, triggered concerns covering the period August 2021 until the end of February and said that 397 civilians were killed in a series of attacks by the Islamic State in the Province of Khorasan, the ISUp Province (ISIS-K).

More than 50 people with alleged relations with armed groups have been killed in the same period, he said, with some tortured and beheaded and left by the roadside.

The human rights situation for many Afghans is a deep concern, “said Michelle Bachelet, a high commissioner for human rights, in a speech that introduced a report to the Geneva Right Agency on Monday.

Some suicide attacks and non-suicide were carried out by ISUp against Shia Muslims, most of the Hazara ethnic group,” he added.

The ISUP, which first appeared in the Eastern Afghanistan at the end of 2014, is estimated to have spread after the takeover of the Taliban and has been blamed for several attacks in recent months, including one at Kabul Airport last August.

In the same speech, Bachelet said that the ruler of the Afghan Taliban had limited the rights and freedom of women. He asked women allowed to “participate full” in public life.

Bachelet also refers to “a number of cases of forced disappearances that disrupted” activists and protesters and expressed concerns about restrictions on freedom of expression.
