Afghan Refugees In Iran Marked Yalda Celebration
Afghan refugee women are sitting next to the Yalda table while attending the Yalda celebration in an Afghan traditional restaurant in the Shahr-e-Rey neighborhood in southern Tehran, Iran, on December 22, 2023. While the first-ever Yalda Night ceremony under Taliban rule is being held in Mazar-e-Sharif, the capital of Balkh province in northern Afghanistan, without the presence of women, these Afghan refugee women are celebrating Yalda in Tehran.
