The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) announced that the European Union has contributed EUR 25 million (US$26.6 million) for humanitarian aid in Afghanistan.
This funding will help WFP deliver food assistance to hungry families – including displaced families – across the country.
It will also support WFP in preventing and treating malnutrition in young children and pregnant and breastfeeding mothers and keep the United Nations Humanitarian Air Service (UNHAS) in the air, WFP said in a statement.
