Taking to her official Twitter account on Wednesday, Yousafzai emphasized, “While the Taliban attempts to erase women from the public sphere, the Afghan women’s football team stands tall as a symbol of courage and resilience in their nation.”
The distinguished Nobel laureate expressed solidarity with Khalida Popal, the founder of Afghanistan’s women’s national team, and joined forces with over 100 parliamentarians from the United Kingdom, Australia, Portugal, and Italy.
