KABUL (Pajhwok): Nine out of 10 families in Afghanistan do not have adequate access to food, with children and pregnant women the hardest hit, says a senior World Food Program (WFP) official.
WFP Deputy Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer Carl Skau said Afghanistan was facing a grave humanitarian crisis.
While characterising the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan as dire, the Swedish diplomat said in an interview that the UN food agency would need $1 billion “to get through” the winter.
Speaking to VOA, Skau added: “We have so far only managed to mobilize some 10% of that.”
