Afghan Refugees In Iran Marked Yalda Celebration
A young Afghan refugee woman is hugging her friend while dressed in traditional attire during the Yalda celebration in the Shahr-e-Rey neighborhood in southern Tehran, Iran, on December 22, 2023. While the first-ever Yalda Night ceremony under Taliban rule took place 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.
