AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Flood Disaster: Heavy rain and flash floods across Afghanistan have killed at least 24 people in the past 48 hours, with deaths concentrated in Baghlan (15), plus fatalities in Badakhshan and Wardak, and dozens more injured as homes are destroyed. Road Disruptions: Flooding has also forced temporary closures, including the Salang Pass and parts of the Takhar–Badakhshan highway, cutting key routes for relief and daily travel. Humanitarian Pressure: The latest deaths follow a deadly April and come as disaster-response capacity remains limited, leaving vulnerable communities exposed to repeated storms. Media Freedom: In Bamyan, the Taliban shut down Bamyan Radio and sealed its office, with journalists’ groups calling for immediate reopening and license renewal. Governance & Housing: The World Urban Forum in Baku ended with a sharp focus on the global housing crisis, resilience, and linking humanitarian help to longer-term city planning. Regional Security: China and Russia warned that terrorism from Afghan soil threatens regional stability and called for stronger counter-terrorism cooperation.
