BBC World Service - Newshour, Afghanistan: More protests against the Taliban

There have been more demonstrations against the Taliban in Afghan provinces

There have been more demonstrations against the Taliban in Afghan provinces.

Reports from northern Afghanistan say the Taliban have arrested more than a dozen protesters who held a rally despite a ban on demonstrations without permission.

Also on this day twenty years ago, the legendary Afghan fighter, Ahmed Shah Massoud was assassinated by al-Qaeda posing as journalists; we speak to his close friend who survived the attack.

We will talk to the White House Press Secretary at the time of 9/11 and hear what might happen to migrants crossing the English Channel.
