UN is looking for $ 606 million for Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover

Geneva: The UN is holding a high-level donor conference on Monday to drive an emergency fund for Afghanistan after the Taliban took over last month from the country that surprised the world.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres led the world’s body’s call for more than $ 600 million for the rest of the year in “flash appeal” for Afghanistan after their state government was revealed by Taliban and US troops and NATO out of 20 years.
War in a chaotic departure.
There are concerns that instability and humanitarian efforts arising, are exacerbated by the ongoing drought, it can endanger the life and plunge of Afghanistan against hunger.
This conference will test several Western governments and other major traditional donors who want to help Afghan people everyday without giving up victory or cash relations to the Taliban, who overthrow the government supported internationally with a lightning stroke.
The United Nations said the “recent developments” had increased Afghan vulnerability that had faced decrivation and violence.
Severe droughts endanger the upcoming harvest, and hunger increases.
The UN World Food Program is the main beneficiary of each fund collected during Monday’s conference.
Along with his partners, the United Nations was looking for $ 606 million for the rest of the year to help 11 million people.
Coinciding with Monday’s conference in Geneva, Head of the UN refugee agency, Filippo Grandi, made a visit not yet announced to Kabul.
He wrote on Twitter that he would assess the humanitarian needs and the situation of 3.5 million refugees in Afghanistan – including more than 500,000 who had been neglected this year.
Officials at UNHCR have expressed concern that some people can try to seek protection in what has become traditional havens to escape from Afghanistan in the neighboring city of Pakistan and Iran, both of which have a large population of Afghanistan who have left their country to escape the war and violence.
The Taliban seized power on August 15, on the day they invaded Kabul after capturing remote provinces in the Blitz campaign.
They initially promised general inclusivity and amnesty for ex-opponents, but many Afghans remained afraid of new rulers.
Taliban police officers have defeated Afghan journalists, strongly spreading women’s protests and forming the government of all men even though at first they would invite a wider representation.
The world has overseen carefully to see how Afghanistan under the Taliban government may be different since the first time Islamic guerrillas in power, in the late 1990s.
During the era, the Taliban imposed a harsh government from their interpretation of Islamic law.
Daughters and women are rejected, and excluded from public life.
Also on Monday, Pakistani international aircraft mapped by the World Bank landed at Kabul Airport to evacuate more people, according to Abullah Hafeaz Khan, airline spokesman.
Pakistan has stopped commercial flights to Kabul for security reasons, and airlines do not have plans so far to continue commercial flights.
Last Thursday, an estimated 200 strangers, including Americans, left Afghanistan on Qatar Airways flights out of Kabul with Taliban cooperation – the first large-scale departure since US troops completed their panic withdrawals on August 30.
Thousands of Afghans remain desperate to come out, also afraid of what Taliban rules.
The Taliban has repeatedly said foreigners and Afghans with the right travel documents can leave.
But their guarantee has been filled with skeptics, and many Afghans cannot obtain certain documents.
