The World Food Program (WFP) is assisting with food more than 100,000 needy families in western Farah province.
The aid is being provided through an organization called Fradata, said the WFP repre-sentative in the province.
Habibullah Amiri said at the inauguration of a training pro-gramme for 42 Fradata work-ers, who will manage the dis-tribution of food aid, that facili-ties and aid would be made available to the institute in a timely manner.
Khadir Rahim Himmat, head of Fradata institute, told local media that food items would be distributed to 100,000 eli-gible families after the completion of a survey in coordination with local schol-ars and influential people.
The items to be distributed in-clude flour, rice, peas, beans, ghee and food supplements for malnourished children and pregnant women.
He pointed out that the aid distribution process would be-gin on January 1, 2022 and would take six months to complete.
The distribution of humanitar-ian aid by the international community to the Afghans has been ongoing for some time. The process is currently un-derway in different provinces.
