The Afghanistan office of the World Food Programme (WFP) warned Friday of a hunger crisis ahead of the upcoming Eid al-Adha in Afghanistan.
"One-fourth of all people in Afghanistan go to sleep hungry every evening," WFP said on social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
The organization noted that it urgently needed 650 million U.S. dollars to continue its operations over the next six months.
International organizations in operation in Afghanistan have been calling upon global donors to increase support either in cash or in kind towards the war-ridden country, amid a funding crisis since the Afghan caretaker government took power in August 2021.
