MAZAR-I-SHARIF (Pajhwok): Thousands of displaced families are in dire need of assistance in northern Balkh province, but the provincial government lacks enough resources to assist them all, said the provincial refugee and repatriation director.
Balkh refugee and repatriation director Syed Massoud Qaderi told Pajhwok Afghan News during an interview that the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Balkh exceeded 20,000 and some of them needed urgent assistance.
Qaderi said his department could assist deserving families only during an emergency situation. He said this year’s clashes forced thousands of more families . . .
