Afghan singer Aryana Sayeed, who is called the country's main pop star, left for Turkey after the Taliban (a terrorist movement banned in Russia ) seized power. Reported by the Daily Mail.
Said is a singer, TV presenter and judge of the Afghan version of The Voice, sings in Persian and Pashto and is one of the most popular singers in Afghanistan. She often performed at concerts and festivals at home and abroad. The artist became one of those who were lucky enough to escape from the country on a US cargo plane on Wednesday, August 18. The 36-year-old shared her 1.3 million Instagram followers about her successful departure from Afghanistan.
“I am healthy and alive. After a couple of unforgettable nights, I am finally in Doha, the capital of Qatar, and am waiting for my possible flight home to Istanbul, ”said Said. “After I return home and recover from disbelief and shock, I will be able to share many stories with you.”
Later, the singer published an update and announced that she flew to Turkey.
Said was a supporter of the Afghan army and spoke out in support of the government many times before the Taliban seized power in the country. She is married to Hasib Sayed, who is also her producer. The man went with his wife to Istanbul.
The arrival of the Taliban raised concerns for the lives and health of Afghan women after members of the movement promised to introduce strict Sharia law. In particular, the fate of the captured Governor Salima Mazari, one of Afghanistan's most prominent women politicians, is unknown. Mazari's supporters say she could be executed.
