Estranged wife to Kanye West, Kim Kardashian has flown 30 Afghan women’s youth football players and their families to Britain, with the assistance of Premier League Club, Leeds United.

The women arrived in the UK yesterday, Thursday, after being flown to London, from Pakistan by Kardashian.

The reality star icon made the move after she was asked by Rabbi Moshe Margaretten to fund the charter flight.

Margaretten is the founder of the Tzedek Association, a nonprofit US group that responds to global poverty.

Margaretten reveals that she got a text message notifying her that Kim Kardashian wanted to fund the entire flight.

English Premier League side, Leeds United, has also offered the teen players an offer of support.

The Afghans, who include the players’ families, will spend 10 days in quarantine before starting new lives in Britain.

Women playing sports is seen as a political act of defiance against the Taliban, and hundreds of female athletes have left Afghanistan since the group returned to power and began curbing women’s education and freedom.

Uganda joined countries like Britain to host thousands of Afghans in a rushed airlift as Kabul fell to Taliban militants in August.
