Afghanistan's main airport is at a halt as the country deals with the impact of the Taliban government's statewide internet outage.
The Taliban has yet to provide a formal rationale for the decision, which took effect on Monday, but has stated that it will last until further notice. The UN stated that it posed a significant danger of harm.
Communication within Afghanistan and with the rest of the world has been badly disrupted, as have crucial services such as banking and payments, as well as access to online education, which is a lifeline for many women and girls.
Meanwhile, one local said that Kabul Airport was "nearly deserted," with no signs of planes arriving or departing.
