The United Nation's World Food Program (WFP)
made the announcement on January 26.
'The Independent' reports that
half of the country has endured
severe hunger throughout the year. .
Half of Afghanistan endures severe
hunger throughout the year, regardless
of the season, and malnutrition rates
are at a record high for Afghanistan, Phillipe Kropf, Spokesman for the U.N. food
agency in Kabul, via 'The Independent'.
There are seven million children
(under the age of 5) and mothers
who are malnourished, in a country
with a population of 40 million, Phillipe Kropf, Spokesman for the U.N. food
agency in Kabul, via 'The Independent'.
In August 2021, the Taliban takeover
resulted in millions of people falling into
poverty and hunger after foreign aid was cut off. .
In response to the situation, the WFP boosted its
delivery and distribution to reach 15 million with
emergency food assistance and nutrition support.
Other aid agencies are also providing food,
education and healthcare, but distribution has been
severely impacted by a Taliban ban on women working. .
The ban has come at the worst
possible moment. Families and
communities don’t know where
their next meal is coming from, Phillipe Kropf, Spokesman for the U.N. food
agency in Kabul, via 'The Independent'.
'The Independent' reports that the ban was put in place
alongside a number of other measures which restrict
the rights and freedoms of women in Afghanistan.
The measures have drawn
international condemnation and
protests to have the bans lifted

The death toll in Peshawar blast that rocked the Pakistani city yesterday has reached over 70. More than 150 have been reported to be injured..or grievously wounded in this suicide bomb blast that apparently targeted policemen praying in a mosque within the tightly guarded police headquarters area. Initially..no outfit claimed the responsibility for this but later….a brother of a slain commander of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan… Umar Khalid Khurasani… took responsibility . He termed it as an act of revenge for his brother who was killed in August last year in Afghanistan. Yesterday’s attack is so far the biggest one carried out by the TTP whose main targets...in the last few years have mostly been security personnel installations. In this video…we take a look at the emergence...rise of this outlawed outfit, TTP i.e Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan…along with discussing how Pakistan has become a victim of its own policies of harbouring terrorist organisations in its backyard. But before that, don’t forget to like, share and subscribe to Oneindia.
