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