The Taliban's Ministry of the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice has pasted posters around Afghanistan's Kabul ordering women to cover their heads. Depicting an image of a face-covering burqa, the poster read, "According to Sharia law, Muslim women must wear the hijab." A ministry spokesperson also said this is "just encouragement for Muslim women to follow Sharia law".
