As of April 2025, 28 of the country&#8217;s 34 provinces are classified as severe or critical in terms of nutritional severity, with 7.8 million people in need of nutritional support, including 857,000 children with severe acute malnutrition, more than 2.5 million children with moderate acute malnutrition, and 1.1 million pregnant and lactating women in need of treatment. Despite projections of a slight improvement in food security, humanitarian organisations on the ground continue to report an increase in malnutrition cases, exacerbated by service closures and reduced funding. The situation is further exacerbated by four consecutive years of drought, economic decline and the return of hundreds of thousands of Afghans from Iran and Pakistan, further burdening already stretched services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">In our situated health facilities, children and women often arrive in difficult conditions.
