The UN warns that over a million Afghan refugees in Pakistan face worsening conditions as U.S. aid cuts threaten critical services, including healthcare, amid urgent calls for international support.
The United Nations has warned that over a million Afghan refugees in Pakistan will be impacted following the suspension of U.S. financial aid. The funding crisis has already started affecting essential services, with many refugees raising concerns about deteriorating conditions.
The suspension of U.S. financial assistance has put critical humanitarian programs in jeopardy. Among the most affected are Afghan refugees living in Pakistan, with reports indicating that approximately 60 health facilities serving them will be forced to shut down.
The United Nations Population Fund has stated that to continue vital programs in Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan, more than $308 million is needed this year.
Meanwhile, Afghan refugees in Pakistan have expressed frustration over the decreasing support from UN agencies. Some have reported that reductions in services have made their already difficult living conditions even more challenging.
The UN continues to appeal for urgent international assistance to prevent further disruptions to these critical aid programs.
