AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoDisaster Toll: The UN says natural hazards have hit Afghanistan hard in 2026, affecting about 92,000 people across 34 provinces since the year began, with 97 deaths, 331 injuries, nearly 10,000 homes damaged and over 2,100 destroyed—floods and flash floods driving most needs. Humanitarian Access: Despite a near-total Pakistan border shutdown after October clashes, 724 aid trucks still crossed into Afghanistan via Torkham, carrying food and critical supplies, as acute child malnutrition remains at critical levels. Flood Aftermath: One year after the 2025 monsoon floods in Swat and Buner, survivors report broken roads, ruined schools and clinics, and limited aid—warning that without lasting flood mitigation, the next disaster could be worse. Livelihoods & Food Security: OCHA warns disaster damage to homes, farms, roads and irrigation is pushing vulnerable families deeper into dependence on assistance. Community Resilience: In Herat, women are turning to beekeeping as a safer income path, supported by WASSA and UNHCR training, linking pollination to stronger crop yields. Governance & Risk: As Afghanistan marks five years under the Taliban, rights groups and UN experts say restrictions and repression are deepening, while the country struggles to cope with overlapping climate and humanitarian shocks.
