Afghanistan Emergency Appeal

Ongoing instability along the Afghanistan–Pakistan border has intensified humanitarian needs across the country. Millions of families are facing displacement, limited access to food and clean water, and insufficient healthcare and shelter. Children, the elderly, and other vulnerable groups are especially at risk, with many communities struggling to meet their most basic needs. 

Recent reports highlight the growing severity of the situation. According to the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, at least 75 people have been killed and 193 injured since late February. More recently, on March 17th, reports indicate that at least 400 people were killed and 250 injured in Kabul, adding to already high levels of need across the country, where many communities continue to require access to medical care, food assistance, and safe shelter. These conditions highlight the ongoing importance of ensuring essential support reaches those who need it most.
