Since the Taliban gained control of Kabul in August, the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan has deteriorated.
The humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan is deteriorating, according to UN organisations, and cash for emergency aid is desperately needed to help the country’s 20 million inhabitants.
Afghanistan has been ravaged by fighting and displacement for decades, as well as chronic poverty, severe drought, and now the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to the United Nations, nearly half of the population, or more than 18 million people, rely on help to survive, while violence and insecurity have displaced more than 3.5 million people, including nearly 700,000 this year alone.
