UNHCR chief calls for immediate mobilization of unconditional aid

UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi called for greater international cooperation to solve multiple crises at the opening of the 72nd session of the Executive Committee including that of urgent humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan.

He said, “millions of Afghans have been uprooted for more than 40 years, and recent developments have created new challenges.”

“You have heard me (and many others in the aid community) say that large-scale, unconditional humanitarian assistance must be mobilized now, immediately.

“Failure to urgently implement these solutions – and we’re talking of weeks, not much longer – will aggravate the crisis,” he said.

Grandi stated that despite always being “very prudent in making predictions regarding population movements, I believe that such a deterioration will almost inevitably cause large internal and possibly external displacement.”

Grandi, who visited Kabul last month, told The Associated Press in an interview three weeks ago that the international community and the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) need to find a way to deal with each other for the sake of stabilizing Afghanistan.

“The international community will have to balance pragmatism, the need to keep Afghanistan stable and viable, and the political considerations that would mean supporting a government led by the Taliban (IEA),” said Grandi.

He also stated a compromise is urgently needed to avoid an economic meltdown that could cause violence and chaos that would ignite a mass exodus. A collapse of the already fragile Afghan economy would engulf Afghanistan’s neighbors and ripple across the world, he said.

IEA defense ministry accuses Pakistan of ceasefire violations

Afghanistan’s Chief of Armed Forces, Fasihuddin Fitrat, said in his Eid message that Pakistan’s military regime has violated the ceasefire along the Durand line.

According to the Eid message released by the Ministry of Defense, several civilians were killed in attacks carried out by Pakistani forces in border areas.

Fitrat added that the continuation of Pakistan’s attacks despite the ceasefire “demonstrates a lack of commitment and deception” on the part of the country.

He stressed that the Islamic Emirate has refrained from retaliatory action in order to prevent further deterioration of the situation and has remained committed to the ceasefire.

However, he warned that if such attacks are repeated, “the ceasefire will become meaningless,” and the Islamic Emirate will deliver a “decisive response” to Pakistan’s actions.

It is worth noting that the Islamic Emirate and Pakistan reached a temporary ceasefire on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr through mediation by Qatar, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia.
