Metro – ‘Return to the dark ages’

Metro – ‘Return to the dark ages’ 

“Return to the dark ages” is the Metro’s headline as it reports the terror of displaced Afghans who are facing the threat of an emboldened Taliban. It says Taliban fighters have celebrated the seizure of swathes of territory following the departure of US, Nato and UK troops by enlisting young girls as sex slaves. The paper quotes MP Simon Clarke as warning of the “horrific consequences” of the withdrawal.
