578085780830048257 | If anybody tells you human rights advocacy is a waste of time, show them this graph. https://t.co/fEobOUR2BM http://t.co/qhyR94mzyv | 195 |
581710686901968896 | The number of Afghans seeking asylum has surpassed all previous years since 2001. http://t.co/QSrgv6SKug http://t.co/GyFfItUcJC | 192 |
1506713098069106688 | The Taliban’s decision to prevent girls from attending secondary schools is terribly disappointing, and could have far-reaching consequences for Afghanistan’s relationship with the world. This thread offers some initial analysis and context. 1/ | 150 |
1570157751464071168 | 1. The U.S. plans to send $3.5 billion into a trust fund as the first step in putting Afghanistan’s frozen assets back to work for the recovery of the war-ravaged economy. I’ve been talking to those involved; this is a thread about their hopes and fears. https://t.co/dTQAbsRMAz | 133 |
1606694592597966848 | I've spent months telling people "don't punish the Taliban by hurting the people" but now the Taliban themselves have decided to block delivery of humanitarian aid to their own suffering population. This is cruel and dangerous. https://t.co/LAk1kFJvfD | 127 |
1021332498427588608 | Trends suggest that the total number of battle deaths in Afghanistan will exceed 20,000 this year, including civilians and combatants on both sides. Historical data is flawed, but the war may be growing more intense than anything since the 1980s. https://t.co/ac7K73CZjM https://t.co/qiweTv8I8M | 106 |
1084368455850180608 | "Afghanistan was by far the deadliest country covered by ACLED in 2018, with nearly as many reported fatalities as Syria and Yemen combined." https://t.co/lqywnD9urB | 85 |
1500891988043911175 | As the world focuses on the Ukraine crisis and people fleeing their homes because of war, a new report from @IOMAfghanistan about displaced Afghans got almost no attention. The survey tells two dramatic stories about war and its aftermath. 🧵1/ https://t.co/YImX3xpzxj | 81 |
1476078952288382978 | The West should ease restrictions and help to revive the Afghan economy. This would reinforce regional stability, stem the drug trade, and curb the migration crisis. Saving millions of Afghans from destitution might also redeem U.S. prestige (1/2) https://t.co/a25ZsRMxDw | 78 |
1534853972720242690 | Some tentative notes from a visit to Kabul with @Afghan_Policy. We are trying to understand the new reality under the Taliban -- and the Taliban themselves are still finding their way. @crisisgroup https://t.co/ZLOgUnCUeJ | 71 |

1473675565664190470 | The UN Security Council has passed a resolution allowing some sanctions exemptions for humanitarian aid delivery in Afghanistan - but US, UN, and other sanctions continue to destroy the Afghan economy, creating the world's largest humanitarian disaster. | 227 |

1419609434754621448 | Peace activist and journalist Bismillah Watandost reportedly detained with three colleagues today in Kandahar. https://t.co/bpOQy8UbwH | 185 |
1057911464244195329 | When I started visiting Afghanistan in 2005, I met Afghan bureaucrats with layers of dust on their desks doing little more than drinking tea. Now the country has a new generation of well-educated officials, and the day-to-day workings of government have changed. https://t.co/m3j1bCCsk8 | 178 |
