Social media images showed Taliban forces firing warning shots and physically assaulting the women to disperse their gathering in the heart of the city on Saturday.
Another video clip showed a small group of women cornered by the Taliban in a closed place.
"We are inside a drug store, they have imprisoned us here," an activist said in one of the videos.
Three foreign journalists and one Afghan worker were briefly detained by the Taliban for covering the protest while another two local journalists were slightly wounded, according to the Afghan Independent Journalists Association (AIJA).
Hujatullah Mujadidi, a senior member of the Kabul-based AIJA, told dpa that the foreign journalists detained were from Germany, Denmark and Norway.
Afghanistan's leading broadcaster tolonews confirmed in its news bulletin that one of its journalists was detained for nearly five hours and their camera was confiscated by the Taliban.
As the one-year anniversary of the Taliban regime gets closer, women are once again on the streets to denounce the restrictions imposed by the Taliban on their rights to education, work and freedom of movement.
The protesters also chanted that they were tired of discrimination against women.
Since returning to power in August 2021, the Taliban have curtailed basic women's rights and those who have protested have been suppressed. No country has recognised the Taliban's defacto government.
Speaking at a televised event in the presidential palace, the Taliban's minister of Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice whose ministry imposed the new rules said their duty is to implement Islamic ideology in society.
"If it is the right that an alien man and woman should sit on the same bench and they call this women's and human rights, then our culture, tradition, faith, religion, Allah and his messenger, none of them allow us to do this," Mohammad Khalid Hanafi said.
