Many Afghani women are abandoned and unable to work, relying solely on aid programs to support their families. One such woman, Hanifa, lost her husband four years ago and is left caring for her six children alone without support. She says she feels like killing herself due to her desperate situation. Afghanistan's women's affairs minister calls for men to change their mindsets towards women in the male-dominated country. Under Taliban rule, women faced severe restrictions on activities and faced violent punishments for infractions of the strict laws.
