UN warns 17 million people in Afghanistan face acute food insecurity.<\/p>\n
Devastated by decades of war and instability, Afghanistan is facing a multitude of crises.<\/p>\n
Since the Taliban returned to power in 2021, it\u2019s been subjected to international sanctions.<\/p>\n
Now, once again, Afghanistan is facing a severe humanitarian crisis.<\/p>\n
The World Food Programme says it\u2019s unable to provide assistance to millions of Afghans.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the result of drastic cuts in aid funding by international donors.<\/p>\n
The situation is compounded by the ongoing forced deportation of millions of Afghans from Pakistan and Iran.<\/p>\n
So, how will these overlapping crises shape the future of the country \u2013 and its people?<\/p>\n
