As the people of Afghanistan are suffering difficult live conditions under the US sanctions as well as the harsh weather, Iran continues its humanitarian assistance to this eastern neighbor.

On the second anniversary of the martyrdom of Lt.General Qassem Soleimani, Iran’s embassy in Kaul distributed livelihood humanitarian packages, worth more than $50,000, among poor Afghan people in this country.

Iran’s humanitarian aid includes 1,000 food packages, including flour, rice, and liquid oil.

Under the structures of the Leader, the Iran embassy in Kabul has provided humanitarian assistance to the Afghan people since the very beginning of the developments in Afghanistan, the Deputy Ambassador of Iran in Kabul said.

Earlier, the missions of Iran in Mazar-e-Sharif, Kunduz, and Kandahar also announced the distribution of non-cash aid to the poor people of the provinces.
