For the first time in decades, Saudi Arabia has begun issuing driver’s licenses to women as it prepares to lift its ban on female drivers on June 24.

The government released a statement saying that 10 women were issued the licenses on Monday. A flood of more applications is now expected.

“Expectations are that next week an additional 2,000 women will join the ranks of licensed drivers in the kingdom,” the statement said.

However, this move is overshadowed by the arrest of a number of women who campaigned for the right to drive.

“It’s absolutely welcomed that the authorities have begun issuing driving licenses to women,” Samah Hadid, from Amnesty International, told the Los Angeles Times. “But unfortunately, this comes at a price where the very women who campaigned for the right to drive are behind bars instead of behind the wheel.”

Saudi prosecutors have not publicly identified the women. However, state-backed media accused them of betraying the country.

The lift on the driving ban comes at a time when the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has pushed for efforts to modernize the country.

All the women that campaigned for the right to drive should be freed nah, haba. Someone celebrated it on facebook as victory for feminism. I just laughed. Truth is, the women are now allowed to drive because cars now drive themselves.

Senseless rules....feminism should be for head slammers since they are the ones always giving rigorous rules and subduing their women

These people sha. Their own perverted minds have no comparison. Not bad mouthing any religion, but some people have to check it. I stay in the north, I schooled there. At the mere sight of a lady, they are already imagining her unclothedness. In my school, they banned leggings, short skirts, tight female shirts, in fact any shirt that shows the shape of a lady. Now car vibrates the vagina. Na their prick?

Like we care!

Long overdue. Sometimes it bothers me the way women are treated in these parts of the world. The questions are, did God create women to be slaves to men, jobless housewives, baby factories, intimacy gadgets, or weaklings?... Most horrible laws are against women especially in all these Arab nations. #womenarealsohumans
