Despite brutal attack, UNHCR will stay and deliver in Afghanistan

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is deeply shocked by the brutal and senseless attack at Kabul International Airport on the evening of Thursday, August 26th. 

Our thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones and the people of Afghanistan.

This terrible attack will not break our resolve and our commitment to support the people of Afghanistan.  

As the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi highlighted, this “horrible bomb attack in Kabul, in addition to everything else, should make us all even more determined not to leave the Afghan people alone. Now is the time to do more for Afghans at risk and in need, and for those who are displaced or refugees in neighbouring countries.” 

Thank you for standing with the people of Afghanistan.
