Afghanistan’s biggest pop star Aryana Sayeed has fled the country on a US flight out of Kabul as the Taliban took control over the capital city of Kabul and the country’s government collapsed in totality.
With the Taliban’s rise in Afghanistan, democracy will crumble as the militant group announced to impose strict Sharia law. According to the new establishment in Afghanistan, women, in general, will have most of their rights quashed including having to cover themselves in a burqa (head to toe covering), not leave their homes without a man as an escort or their right to education. The Taliban now also says that religious scholars will decide whether girls can go to school and if women can work.
The singer took to her official Instagram handle and dropped a picture featuring herself and her partner, Hasib Sayed.
“I am well and alive and after a couple of unforgettable nights, I have reached Doha, Qatar and am awaiting my eventual flight back home to Istanbul,” Sayeed told her Instagram followers.
Sharing the picture, Aryana penned a long note to her Instafam in order to inform them about the news of her escape. Aryana wrote, “I had said in one of my recent interviews that I will be the “Last Soldier to leave the Motherland”… and interestingly enough, that is exactly what happened.”
“I hope and pray as a result of the recent changes, at the very least my beautiful people will be able to start living a peaceful life without the fear of suicide bombers and explosions. My heart, my prayers and my thoughts will always be with you!” she continued. The Voice judge added, “My heartfelt gratitude to each and everyone of you for your well-wishes and prayers who were concerned about my presence inside Afghanistan after so many others with lesser dangers/concerns had already left.”
Aryana wrote, “I am well and alive and after a couple of unforgettable nights, I have reached Doha, Qatar and am awaiting my eventual flight back home to Istanbul.” “After I get home and my mind and emotions return back to normal from a world of disbelief and shock, I have many stories to share with you My LOVE/S!!” “For now, please stay safe and please stay united! xoxo -Aryana,” she concluded in her post. The Afghan pop star’s partner, Hasib Sayed, also shared another post where the singer can be seen sleeping on a flight with her mask on.
