AFGHANISTAN-MALNUTRITION-CHILDREN
This photograph taken on February 26, 2024 shows Samira (L), an Afghan nurse, holding a cup of milk for a patient in the malnutrition ward of the government hospital in Baharak district of Badakhshan province. Malnutrition has been exacerbated by the upheaval sparked by the Taliban's sweep to power in 2021. Ten percent of children under five in Afghanistan are malnourished and 45 percent have stunted growth -- one of the world's highest rates, according to the United Nations.
