The UN General Assembly overwhelmingly adopted a resolution condemning the Taliban's oppression of women and girls in Afghanistan, despite US and Israeli opposition. The resolution, while non-binding, urges the Taliban to reverse their policies, eliminate terrorist groups, and calls for international aid to address the humanitarian crisis. The US criticized the resolution, arguing it rewards the Taliban's actions, while also highlighting Iran's mistreatment of Afghan refugees. The resolution also emphasizes the need for a coordinated international approach to the Afghan situation.
