American porn star Whitney Wright travels to Taliban-ruled Afghanistan

The trip assumes significance since the Taliban have limited rights of women and girls in the country and even imposed strict morality laws since taking control of the South Asian country in 2021.

On Saturday, Whitney Wright, an American adult film star, shared new photos from her visit to various Afghan cities, reported Afghanistan International.

In one image, she is seen holding an AK-47 rifle, suggesting that she is travelling under Taliban security, the news portal reported.

She reportedly posted videos of her visit to Band-e Amir, Afghanistan’s national park, a venue where Afghanistani women and girls are barred from entering.

The Taliban announced several strict measures since coming to power, like barring women from not travelling more than 72 kilometres alone without a male guardian.

The women are also prevented from entering parks, restaurants, and gyms.

On Friday, Wright shared images from Kabul and Herat on her social media accounts, showcasing various locations in both cities. Her posts included photos of an Ariana Airlines aircraft, the tiled ceiling of a shrine in Herat, a shop, and rickshaws on a street, although she was not visible in any of these pictures, reported Afghanistan International.

The Taliban has not commented on her visit to the country so far.

Despite imposing restrictions, the Taliban have allowed women and men travellers to visit the country.
