Afghanistan: outgoing ICRC head warns of humanitarian crisis

admin < 1 min

ICRC, 8 October 2012
Reto Stocker’s worrying conclusions: ‘I am filled with concern as I leave this country. Since I arrived here in 2005, local armed groups have proliferated, civilians have been caught between not just one but multiple front lines, and it has become increasingly difficult for ordinary Afghans to obtain health care. People are not just suffering the effects of the armed conflict. Hardship arising from the economic situation, or from severe weather or natural disaster, has become more widespread, and hope for the future has been steadily declining.’
