SHAFAQNA- Crime & terrorism thriving again in Afghanistan amid economic ruin, warned the President of the UN’s General Assembly.
Two-thirds of Afghans are going hungry, with girls’ education subject to “random edicts” of the Taliban, while crime and terrorism are thriving once more buoyed by a large spike in opium production, Csaba Kőrösi Said.
Csaba Kőrösi painted a near apocalyptic picture of ordinary life in the Taliban-ruled nation that has endured almost five decades of “relentless conflict”, urging the international community to make up the $2.3 billion shortfall in the UN’s humanitarian appeal for $4.4 billion.
