AGP Executive Report

Last update: 26 minutes ago

Drought & Rural Hardship (Balkh): In Zari District, rain-fed wheat is failing as drought and heat cut harvests to “almost nothing,” while dust, weak roads, and rising transport costs leave families struggling to buy basic food and clean water. Humanitarian Funding Crunch (Afghanistan health): CARE says it has suspended 30 clinics due to lack of funding, as hundreds of facilities have closed or reduced services; staff warn women and newborns are arriving in critical condition. Food Crisis Pressure (WFP): The UN reports worsening malnutrition and rising distress calls as households run out of money for essentials like milk, with hunger pushing people toward breaking points. Women’s Rights Under Taliban Rule: UN Women and other reporting highlight intensified restrictions over five years, including bans on girls’ secondary education that also fuel child marriage risk. EU Engagement Without Recognition: EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says the bloc keeps supporting Afghans with over €2 billion in aid via UN and partners, while refusing to recognize the Islamic Emirate. Media Freedom Clampdown: CPJ says Taliban controls journalists through surveillance, detention, censorship, and exile, with women facing extra discrimination. Journalist Released: Hamid Farhadi is freed after two years in Taliban custody, following international rights pressure.
