The Taliban have banned women from appearing in television dramas in its latest measure curbing individual freedoms in Afghanistan.
The ban is the lastest in a series of restrictions targeting the country's television and movie industry, the report said.
Also banned in the restrictions are movies that are seemingly against the Taliban's interpretation of Sharia law, which the militant group uses to enforce strict guidelines on dress codes and to prevent women from getting an education.
Since the collapse of Afghanistan's government in mid-August, the Taliban's return to power has seen Afghan women stripped of many of the freedoms they have had since the militant group was first ousted from power 20 years ago.
