The Taliban has been distributing aid to needy families in Afghanistan since it took control of the country in August 2021. The aid is intended to help families who have been displaced by conflict or who are struggling to make ends meet.
The international community has also provided aid to Afghanistan, but more is needed to help the country recover from decades of conflict.
