The White House announced that it provided $ 308 million in humanitarian assistance for Afghanistan on Tuesday morning, because half of the country’s population faced despair hunger.

It happened when the United Nations attracted more than $ 5 billion to prevent disaster after the Taliban takeover last year.

Billions of dollars in Afghan assets are frozen and international assistance is turned off overnight as the Western government, which has been against the Taliban, turns off help.

At the end of last year, the Biden government issued what was described as ‘broad authorization’ to allow the United Nations, aid agency, government agency A.S. To work with Taliban groups and blacklists to provide assistance without sanctions.

White House spokesman Emily Horne said on Tuesday that new assistance from the U8 Agency for international development would be channeled through independent humanitarian organizations for shelter, health care, emergency food assistance, water, sanitation and cleanliness.

“The United States is committed to supporting Afghans and we continue to consider all the options available to us,” he said.
