British couple in their 70s and a Chinese-American detained by the Taliban in Afghanistan

The articles detail the detention of British couple Peter and Barbie Reynolds, aged 79 and 75 respectively, by the Taliban in Bamiyan province, Afghanistan. The couple had been living in Afghanistan for 18 years, running projects in schools, and were working through their organization, Rebuild, to provide education and training programs for businesses. Their arrest appears to be related to the Taliban's ban on women working and female education beyond primary school.
