TEHRAN (IQNA) – A protest was held in Toronto, Canada’s Ontario, by dozens of members of the Afghan community outside city hall on Sunday. They demanded security from the Taliban-run government for women and girls in Afghanistan. "The international community need to pay attention … and recognize that this is a genocide that is happening in Afghanistan against the Hazara community." About 20 protesters gathered in the Dasht-e-Barchi area for about 45 minutes before their rally was broken up by Taliban security. Tahir Shaaran, another organizer of the Toronto protest, said the Hazara community has been the target of attacks over the last 10 years.
