Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers ordered all Afghan women to wear head-to-toe clothing in public — a sharp pivot that confirmed the worst fears of rights activists.

Senior Afghanistan researcher Heather Barr of Human Rights Watch urged the international community to put coordinated pressure on the Taliban.
