She explained that activists, journalists and government workers are being tracked.

She tweeted: “Over the past hour, many Afghan female friends in Kabul have told me that the Taliban are in their neighbourhoods, going door-to-door, looking for women in government and media, and making lists.

Zarifa Ghafari, 27, said on Sunday: “I’m sitting here waiting for them to come. There is no one to help me or my family.”

“I just sit with them and my husband. And they will come for people like me and kill me. I can’t leave my family. And anyway, where am I going?”
