Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai reacted to a recent UNICEF report regarding the severe shortage of female teachers and healthcare workers. He urgently called for the reopening of schools and universities for all Afghan girls. Karzai warned that continuing these educational bans holds devastating consequences for the nation.

The former president emphasized that keeping educational institutions closed directly undermines Afghanistan's long-term national capability. According to him, this unfortunate situation will leave the country heavily dependent on foreign assistance. Reports indicate that current restrictions have already triggered a massive crisis in the education sector.

The United Nations Children's Fund recently announced that Afghanistan faces a critical lack of professional female staff. Over a million Afghan girls have been unjustly deprived of their right to education, and this number grows. These harsh restrictions also significantly obstruct women's essential access to healthcare services.
