Spain welcomes the request for arrest warrants for two authorities of the de facto Taliban government in Afghanistan for crimes against humanity for gender-based persecution.
Spain urged the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in November to include crimes committed against women and girls in its investigation into the situation in Afghanistan.
Spain will continue to hold the Taliban government accountable before international bodies for the crimes committed against women and girls in Afghanistan and the serious violations of international law.
