A 32-year-old woman named Nooria, mother of four, died in Taywara district, Ghor province, after being severely beaten and burned with heated metal rods by her husband during a family dispute. Her husband admitted to the killing and surrendered to Taliban authorities. The attack occurred in front of the couple's four young children. Women's rights activists noted the case reflects the dismantling of legal protections for women under Taliban rule, including the elimination of EVAW-related institutions, shelters, and specialized prosecutors.

Taliban forces in Nawur district, Ghazni province arrested four civilians from Khawat and Gorg Koshteh villages on unsubstantiated weapon possession charges. The detainees were tortured and subsequently extorted: two were forced to pay money equivalent to two firearms for their release, while the other two were released on bail with a one-week ultimatum to hand over two weapons or an equivalent monetary sum. None of the individuals have a military background. Similar extortion incidents have previously been reported in Nawur, Jaghori, and Malistan districts.
