Reports from the U4 Anti-Corruption Resource Centre highlight issues such as favoritism, aid diversion, and inflated costs, exacerbated by poor donor coordination and weak oversight. Investigations by SIGAR and Transparency International reveal that the Taliban have exploited aid networks through fraudulent NGOs, diverting resources intended for vulnerable populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The high costs of aid delivery, including transportation and administrative expenses, further reduce the funds reaching those in need. The UN agencies have not yet responded to these allegations amid ongoing funding cuts and security challenges affecting aid operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Afghan government\u2019s accusations emphasize the urgent need for improved transparency to restore public trust and enhance the effectiveness of humanitarian aid in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Afghanistan\u2019s acting Minister of Public Health, Noorjalal Jalali, has publicly accused the World Food Programme (WFP) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) of delivering expired and substandard humanitarian aid, Khaama Press reported.
