Description
Since the start of the school year in March, Afghan boys have been required to wear new uniforms of turbans and long tunics, following an order to adopt outfits reflecting Taliban rule.
Some in the capital have disapproved of the new measure, but at the Mahmood Tarzi school in the Taliban heartland of southern Kandahar, pupils say they're happy with their new clothing. "It distinguishes students from other people in the street," says 15-year-old Mohammad Wali. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
