Blood disease patients in Kabul protest against drug shortages

epa10852553 Afghan patients suffering from blood diseases and their relatives gather to protest against the shortages of medicines at treatment facilities in Kabul, Afghanistan, 10 September 2023. Patients suffering from blood diseases in Kabul gathered to protest due to a shortage of drugs at the central blood bank. The Taliban-controlled government claims that patient numbers are increasing but there is a lack of medicine for treatment. The patients are urging organizations like WHO and WFH, who have previously assisted them, to address this issue. They also mentioned that Italy, which used to provide help, has stopped its support. The patients are appealing for continued support, especially from the Italian Welfare Association, as their situation is dire and without assistance, many lives are at risk. EPA/SAMIULLHA POPALZAI
