On Saturday, the group used tear gas, rifle butts and metal clubs to break up an all women protest, which marked the second demonstration in two days.<\/p>\n<p>Attendees reported being beaten by Taliban fighters using sharp metal devices. They added shots were fired into the air to restrain the protest.<\/p>\n<p>The women demanded rights to go to school, work and to participate in government. Demonstrators however described the backlash to be bloody.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether with a group of our colleagues, we wanted to go near a former government office for a protest, but before we got there the Taliban hit women with electric tasers, and they used tear gas against women,\u201d Soraya, a former government employee and attendee of the protest said. \u201cThere was no one to ask why.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2510292\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2510292\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2510292\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/t.jpg\" alt=\"TOPSHOT - An Afghan woman protester (3L) speaks with a member (R) of the Taliban during a protest in Herat on September 2, 2021. - Defiant Afghan women held a rare protest on September 2 saying they were willing to accept the all-encompassing burqa if their daughters could still go to school under Taliban rule.

However, many Afghans remain skeptical those promises will be kept. Farhat Popalzai, 24, told the Associated Press she demonstrated for the women who may be too afraid to protest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am the voice of the women who are unable to speak,\u201d said Popalzai. \u201cThey think this is a man\u2019s country, but it is not, it is a woman\u2019s country too.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/sen-cruz-warns-of-human-rights-crisis-amid-child-brides-entering-u-s\/\">Sen.
