What happened on Friday March 02, 2001?

Here's what happened on March 02, 2001:

• Destruction of Bamiyan Buddhas by Taliban In a devastating act of cultural destruction, the Taliban systematically began demolishing the ancient Bamiyan Buddha statues, which were UNESCO World Heritage sites carved into cliff faces in central Afghanistan. These monumental 6th-century Buddhist sculptures, standing 55 and 38 meters tall, represented extraordinary examples of Gandharan Buddhist art and were among the world's most significant archaeological treasures.
• Cable Broadcasting Regulation Change A significant federal appeals court ruling expanded the broadcasting capabilities of cable companies, striking down previous regulations that had limited their ability to produce and broadcast proprietary content. This decision potentially reshaped the media landscape by giving cable providers more flexibility in content creation and distribution.
