Malala Yousafzai breaks silence on Taliban, calls for ‘immediate cease-fire’ | New York Post

Malala Yousafzai — the activist who was shot in the face by the Taliban when she was just 14 — has called on world leaders to bring about “an immediate cease-fire” as the militant group has once again risen to power.

“We watch in complete shock as Taliban takes control of Afghanistan,” tweeted Malala, the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner in history.

“I am deeply worried about women, minorities and human rights advocates,” said the famed activist, who was demanding education for girls when she was attacked in 2012.

“Global, regional and local powers must call for an immediate ceasefire, provide urgent humanitarian aid and protect refugees and civilians,” she wrote Sunday.
