KABUL (Pajhwok): The United Nations launched an updated $10.3 billion appeal to combat the coronavirus pandemic that has hit scores of low-income countries.
“The pandemic and associated global recession are about to wreak havoc in fragile and low-income countries,” said the UN under-secretary for humanitarian affairs.
Mark Lowcock told a media briefing in New York on Friday: “The response of wealthy nations so far has been grossly inadequate and dangerously short-sighted.”
He warned failure to act now would leave . . .
