Afghanistan’s booming drugs trade under Taliban rule – BBC News


With economic collapse in Afghanistan, the country’s drug trade appears to be booming.

Afghanistan has long been linked with the production of opium and heroin and is also now a major producer of crystal meth.

The Taliban say farmers cannot be banned from producing drugs for now because there are no alternative sources of income for poor families.

Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Secunder Kermani and cameraman Malik Mudassir.
