'You can see the changes': Afghan women go from wearing suits to wearing burqas 1 month since the fall of Kabul

Afghans left behind after the U.S. military withdrew wear their country's changes.

They show up in the bruises left from a beating or the garb required for women who had adopted more modern dress but now must cover their bodies to comply with the Taliban.

It has been only one month since the Taliban, on Aug. 15, retook Kabul without firing a single shot. Now the regime is back in power after a two-decade war that ended when the last U.S. flight left the airport in Kabul on Aug. 31.

“You can see the changes,” a woman who remains in Afghanistan told USA TODAY.
