Amid grave concerns over poverty and hunger in Afghanistan, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said that it will help 22 million people in the country.
“Humanitarian aid is delivered based on the needs and vulnerabilities of people, with no distinctions on nationality, race, gender, religious belief, class, or political opinions,” said OCHA. The head of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said that the goal of humanitarian actors in 2022 is to assist more than 22 million people in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, a number of poor and destitute families in the country said that the current winter has doubled their challenges while no humanitarian assistance has been provided. Nafisa, who is the mother of four kids, said that she was displaced three years ago from Kunduz to Kabul during the conflict, and because her husband is sick she is begging on the streets of Kabul with her five-month-old baby.—Agecnies
