Taliban Celebrates One-Year Afghan Return; Afghanistan Faces Hunger,Econ., More Crises

 The Taliban today (August 15, 2022) celebrated the one-year anniversary of its return to power in Afghanistan after U.S. forces ended a 20-year campaign, but the country is dealing with multiple crises, including a spiraling economy and deterioration of women's rights, according to the UPI website. 


U.S. forces were caught off-guard by how rapidly the Taliban reclaimed power in Afghanistan against U.S.-backed Afghan troops amid the withdrawal.


The departure started a slide of support for U.S.President Joe Biden.
