Officials at the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriations (MoRR) said that there are still thousands of internally displaced and homeless people in Kabul which are in need of urgent basic humanitarian assistance.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They added that the ministry has so far relocated 4,000 internally displaced families to their home provinces.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis assistance is not enough, people have lots of problems in Afghanistan and full attention must be paid to their challenges. The pledges of the international community have not been sufficiently fulfilled and have not reached Afghanistan,\u201d said Mohammad Arsalah Kharoti, deputy minister of refugees and repatriations.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, some internally displaced people complained that their challenges have not been adequately addressed, saying they are in dire need of shelter.<\/p>\n

Tawus Khan, 50, fled from Helmand province to Qanbar crossroads in Kabul during the battles between the Islamic Emirate and the former government. He said he has two wives and 18 children. \u201cWinter is near, we do not have bread at home. We have lots of problems,\u201d Tawus Khan told TOLOnews.<\/p>\n

Shah Bibi, who is the first wife of Tawus Khan, said that she has eight children and they are living in a very bad economic situation. She added that they have no food to eat and their problems have not been addressed. \u201cWe have come from Helmand, we are displaced, we are hungry and thirsty, we have nothing,\u201d said Shah Bibi.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, some economists said that the improvement of the economic situation and prevention of Afghanistan\u2019s economy from collapsing depends on long-term international economic assistance in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cEffective assistance must be provided, employment opportunities need to created, such as long-term economic projects in the provinces\u00a0where many people have been displaced,\u201d said Iraj Faqiri, an economist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
