GLOBALink | 1,500 destitute Afghans receive China-donated humanitarian assistance

The Ministry for Refugees and Repatriation Affairs distributed China-donated humanitarian assistance to 1,500 destitute people in Kabul on Saturday.

In the meantime, each needy person received a 50 kg sack of rice donated by China in humanitarian aid to the people of Afghanistan.

The Chinese government announced last September that it has decided to provide food, winter supplies, COVID-19 vaccines, and medicines worth 200 million yuan (about 31.4 million U.S. dollars) in emergency humanitarian aid to Afghanistan.

China has provided a total of 6,220 tons of food aid to Afghanistan.
