United Nations says that Afghanistan needs urgent and sustained support from the international community to prevent a larger humanitarian crisis.

In a statement, the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugee Filippo Grandi warned of global implications, if public services and the economy collapse. He said we will see even greater suffering, instability, and displacement both within and outside of Afghanistan.

He said that humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan will have not only regional, but global implications.
