shops reopen in afghanistan under taliban rule after one month

Shops have reopened in Afghanistan, one month after the Taliban took over the administration. The people, who have disagreements about how the administration will be after the Taliban gains control, are trying to return to their old order. Shops are opening gradually in Lisei Maryam, the second largest bazaar in Afghanistan’s capital, Kabul. The shopkeepers of the bazaar, which had been visited by 200,000 people every day in the past, are trying to revive the daily life. Store employees hope that sales will increase.

Wild Elephant Raids Thai Market

A wild elephant named “Plai Biang Lek” entered a market near Khao Yai National Park in Thailand, eating snacks for 10 minutes before the shop owner chased it away with a slingshot.

The incident occurred in Nakhon Ratchasima province. Shop owner Ploy reported a loss of about 1,000 Baht, mainly rice crackers and eggs. Though elephants are known to roam the area, this was the first time one entered a store.

Thailand has an estimated 3,000–3,500 wild elephants, which occasionally wander into villages, but solo market intrusions during daylight are rare.
