Members of Afghanistan's Hazara community, an ethnic minority made up of mainly Shi'ite Muslims, say they are facing a wave of persecution under the new Taliban regime. Families who fled to Kabul from Daikundi and Uruzgan provinces report that Taliban officials forced them out of their homes in the middle of the night and seized their crops and property. Some say Hazara homes and land have been handed over to Taliban supporters.
