AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Severe Weather Toll: Strong winds and thunderstorms hit Kandahar, Herat, Ghor and Takhar, killing six and injuring 11, with roads, wells, farmland, trees and hundreds of solar panels damaged; 20 homes were destroyed and 10 more damaged, as residents in the south report power poles wiped out. Humanitarian Pressure: The wider disaster picture is worsening—ANDMA says since late March, 250 people have died, 344 injured and 17,000 families have been affected by natural disasters. City Services Strain: In Kabul, residents complain the municipality has failed to install garbage bins, forcing people to dump waste along roads and drainage channels, raising health and environmental fears as temperatures rise. Rights Under Scrutiny: Taliban authorities introduced new legislation that critics say enables child marriage for girls as young as nine, linking eligibility to puberty and redefining consent. Regional Trade Push: Afghanistan and Uzbekistan are expanding ties, with talks focused on textiles, cotton processing, leather and machinery transfers.
