According to the World Food Program (WFP), the European Union has donated 50 million Euros in cash to Afghanistan.

WFP said the assistance was vital for the people of Afghanistan and would help the program increase its ability to provide aid.

“We are committed to helping the people of Afghanistan, especially the most vulnerable people,” said Chargée d’affaires of the EU Delegation to Afghanistan, Raffaella Iodice.

“Our investment in WFP will have positive and long-lasting impacts on local communities,” Raffaella Iodice added.

This comes after WFP said recently that 9 out of 10 families in Afghanistan cannot meet their basic needs, including food supplies, especially households headed by women.

Since early 2022, 427 thousand people have benefited from EU assistance in 27 provinces of Afghanistan.
