Русская версияThe aid agency Oxfam has warned that Afghanistan needs urgent help
if it is to avoid a humanitarian disaster this winter.
Oxfam called
for a "major humanitarian response" in a letter to development
ministers around the world. In July, it appealed for just over 400
million dollars to meet the needs of some five million Afghans, but
has apparently received only a fifth of the amount. Nearly 1,000
people died last winter in Afghanistan, where about half the
population lives under the poverty line.
