Aid agencies distribute relief to more than 300 displaced families in capital Kabul – a tiny fraction of the needs in Afghanistan which faces a severe winter and near collapse of economy
"Winter is difficult, and we have nothing except God, and we need more help," says aid recipient Bibi Pashtoon during the distribution of relief to hundreds of displaced families in capital Kabul.
The distribution of aid to 324 families on Wednesday represents a tiny fraction of the needs in Afghanistan, which faces a severe drought as well as a near collapse of its economy following the withdrawal of Western support. "Around 50,000 Afghan people from different provinces of the country have been displaced because of recent conflicts and are in Kabul. Our assistance continues to needy people every week," said UNHCR spokesperson Babar Baloch.
