It takes so much courage to go in and ask those tough questions directly. I really appreciate the BBC giving us a window into what life is actually like there right now. It's heartbreaking, but seeing these firsthand accounts gives me hope that the world won't just forget about the people of Afghanistan. Thank you for this reporting!
