Welcome to AFGHAN DISPATCHES 02 with DIVA PATANG (https://twitter.com/DivaPatang?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author) and ChromeRadio's CATRIONA OLIPHANT (https://chromemedia.co.uk/).
We recorded the first podcast in this series shortly before the terror attack outside Kabul airport on 26 August 2021. In this episode, Diva recalls the day of that terror attack. She speaks about Afghans' fear of a new civil war and their desire for peace and unity. She also talks about blazing a trail as one of the first women to present cricket coverage for Radio Television Afghanistan (RTA) and enabling women to experience cricket live.
