About Khaama Press
Khaama Press was founded in Kabul in 2010 by Afghan journalist and entrepreneur Khushnood Nabizada, who is identified as its founder and owner. Public information indicates private ownership, with no verified state ownership or major corporate parent disclosed.
Media Bias News reports an unattributed center rating and very low factuality rating, but notes that its underlying assessments could not be independently verified. Ground News lists Khaama Press as unrated by major bias databases. RSF and Freedom House describe Afghanistan’s severe Taliban censorship, which constrains all domestic outlets but does not prove state alignment by Khaama Press. The sample shows broad international aggregation, official-source attribution, and some sensational or difficult-to-verify claims. Khaama Press journalists and editors have also faced Taliban harassment and detention, including over coverage of women’s rights.
How to read Khaama Press
When seeking news from Afghanistan, prioritize exiled and international independent sources, as domestic media operates under significant state control and censorship.
