Afghanistan: Reporting from a province being taken by the Taliban

As the Taliban continue to capture territory and international forces pull out their last remaining troops in Afghanistan, the United Nations' top humanitarian official in the country Ramiz Alakbarov has described the situation there as a 'humanitarian catastrophe' and says around 18 million people, more than half the country鈥檚 population, are in urgent need of life-saving support. Tens of thousands of people have been forced to flee the violence and basic services in many areas are destroyed.聽

The 大象传媒's Yogita Limaye has travelled to Kunduz city in northern Afghanistan, where people who have fled the violence are now in camps for internally-displaced people. Many have lost their homes and loved ones in recent attacks. She describes the scene there.
