KABUL (Pajhwok): The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) says less than five percent of the 2023 appeal for humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan has been received.
UNOCHA wrote on its Twitter handle: “Despite Afghanistan being world’s largest & most severe humanitarian crisis, the 2023 appeal has received less than 5% of its requirement.”
It said the received amount, making it the lowest-funded aid operation globally, without urgent resources. Millions of people risked missing out lifesaving aid, it tweeted.
In Afghanistan, 28.3 million people are in need of aid, 23 percent of them women . . .
