MOSCOW, (Sputnik) – People willing to withdraw money formed long lines around banks in Kabul on Monday over concerns about possible new restrictions by the Taliban (a terrorist group banned in Russia), the national Ariana News broadcaster reported.
On Saturday, that the central bank of Afghanistan ordered the private banks to resume their operations and imposed a $200 cash withdrawal limit per person a week.
Amid the economic turbulence in Afghanistan, prices for necessities and basic food are rocketing while the national Afghani currency is falling.
On Saturday, hundreds of people in Kabul protested the closure of all the bank institutions in Afghanistan. The bank sector in the post-conflict state was shut down for almost a fortnight, which left many Afghans short of cash and barred employers from paying out salaries to the staff.
