New Zealand journalist Charlotte Bellis has been on the ground in Kabul this week as Afghanistan recorded its first official day under Taliban rule in nearly two decades amid unconfirmed reports of Taliban members going door to door executing people.

It has also been reported that women and LGBT people are being targeted by the Taliban. Charlotte joins the show for an update on the situation there.
