Deeply sorry to hear of these lives lost in The HALO Trust’s vital work to make Afghanistan safe for its people.
UK funding supports the Afghan people in a humanitarian crisis worsened by climate change. Our partners including United Nations, World Food Programme, UNFPA Afghanistan, The HALO Trust, @IOM Afghanistan and World Vision do vital work. Good to see their impact on the ground this week.
Nearly 300 million people depend on aid just to survive. Aid workers like Thamindri in Afghanistan risk their own lives to save those of others. The UK is working at the United Nations to protect the rights of aid workers in conflict. We must protect them. World Vision UK
The UK remains committed to supporting the people of Afghanistan. This funding to the World Food Programme will help more than one million people with vital emergency food and nutrition assistance, as well as helping build the resilience of vulnerable communities.
