Bayan News – United Nations officials in Afghanistan report the loss of 30 of their staff members over the past two years in Afghanistan.
Daniel Anders, the coordinator of humanitarian aid for the organization, tweeted on Saturday (August 19) the statistics regarding the loss of these employees during humanitarian activities.
According to Anders, those who lost their lives were vaccinators and deminers.
He stated that humanitarian staff members face constant risks in carrying out their duties, which is unacceptable.
Daniel Anders added that without humanitarian staff, millions of people will not have access to vital needs.
He further stated that today the humanitarian needs in Afghanistan have reached their highest level, and 29 million people require assistance.
On the other hand, according to him, funding sources are drying up, which threatens the lives and health of millions of people.
