Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan wrote in a tweet that he has begun talks with the Afghan Taliban on the formation of an inclusive government and the presence of Tajiks, Hazaras and Uzbeks. He said he held the talks after talks with regional leaders, especially Tajikistan, on the sidelines of the SCO summit.
According to the Associated Press, the Taliban on Saturday fired the employees of the "Women's Economic Empowerment", a body under the auspices of the World Bank. Also, according to the Associated Press, a day after the Taliban changed the name of the "Ministry of Women", only men were allowed to attend the former ministry.
