A severe cold wave continues in Afghanistan, due to which the death toll has risen to 166 this month.
According to officials, the death toll in Afghanistan has increased by 88 over the past week. It is reported that the mercury has dropped to minus 33 degrees Celsius in some areas of Afghanistan.
According to the report of Afghan Disaster Management, 166 people died in severe cold weather in Afghanistan, while extremely difficult conditions have piled up misery on the poverty-stricken country.
Since January 10, the temperature has dropped to minus 33 degrees. Recent deaths have been caused by floods or fires due to gas leakage from heaters.
During the cold weather, 100 houses were destroyed and 80,000 cattle were killed.
The aid agency has warned that half of Afghanistan’s 38 million inhabitants face food shortages, while nearly four million children are malnourished.
