Matt Dusk sings Sinatra in Halifax/PEI/Moncton | SaltWireKARACHI, Pakistan - The World Food Programme on Wednesday called the recent Afghanistan earthquakes a 'disaster on top of a disaster,' urging the international community to provide humanitarian aid to the war-torn nation.
"We have 50 million people who do not know where their next meal will come from, and the World Food Program is only able to support 3 million people due to a massive funding shortfall," Kropf said in Herat, a northwestern province where the WFP has begun distributing rations. "Breastfeeding women are amongst the most vulnerable," along with children and pregnant women, he said."If we can help them prevent malnutrition, that's how we do it, because preventing malnutrition is much cheaper than treating malnutrition."
