“Save the Children is warning that even more could die from cold in what
is Afghanistan’s worst winter for 15 years,” the charity group said in
a statement, adding that temperatures were expected to drop as low as 1.4F
(-17C).
“This has been a brutal winter and children have little to protect them
from the biting cold,” Bob Grabman, Save the Children’s country
director in Afghanistan, said.
“Many are trying to survive without decent shelter or blankets, without
fuel, food, warm clothes or shoes,” he added.
“At night the temperature falls dangerously low, threatening the lives of
newborns and small children. It’s crucial we get urgent help to families so
children are protected,” Grabman added.
According to the charity about 20,000 people, fleeing insecurity caused by a
Taliban-led insurgency, are living in more than 30 informal settlements in
Kabul under extreme hardship. Most live in flimsy tents.
Despite the flood of billions of dollars in aid from the international
community after the collapse of the Taliban Afghanistan remains among the
poorest nations in the world.
