The Taliban marked the second anniversary of its return to power yesterday with a public holiday. But few Afghans, both women and men, have much to celebrate. The Taliban, recently stopped most Afghan female staff from working with aid agencies, closed beauty salons, barred women from parks and curtailed their travel in the absence of any male guardian. In March, the UN said that “Afghanistan under the Taliban remains the most repressive country in the world regarding women’s rights.” The fall of Kabul on 15 August 2021 followed the US decision to pull troops out of the country by September that year.

Former US President Donald Trump has been charged with attempting to overturn his 2020 election loss in the state of Georgia. A grand jury voted to charge Mr Trump and 18 others with counts that include racketeering. There are 41 charges, with 13 against Mr Trump. It is the fourth time he has been criminally charged this year. Trump has denied all charges, and his campaign said the US had become "a Marxist Third World dictatorship".

Donald Trump has been criminally indicted four times, and will have a series of trials to attend in 2024 as he runs again for the White House.

Prosecutors said his arraignment will take place in September, and the trial will begin in March if a judge approves.
