Several international aid organizations, including the Danish Refugee Council and Save the Children, have expressed deep concern over Afghanistan’s worsening humanitarian crisis. In a joint statement, they highlighted that millions of Afghans remain trapped in cycles of poverty, displacement, and despair three years after the Taliban’s return to power.
The statement warned that only 25% of the required aid has been received this year, leading to the closure of 343 health teams. With over 12 million people facing acute food insecurity, the situation is expected to deteriorate, putting over half a million children at risk of severe malnutrition.
The organizations urged the global community to increase humanitarian aid and ensure long-term support.
