The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that war-ravaged Afghanistan has only a few days of medical supplies left to meet the health needs of millions of people in the country, according to a media report.

The WHO said that health kits containing essential supplies, medicine for hospitals, nutritional food for acutely malnourished children and items for controlling the Covid-19 pandemic are short in supply, Voice of America (VOA) reported. Following the Kabul blasts on August 26, trauma kits are also in high demand. WHO's emergency director for the Eastern Mediterranean region Rick Brennan said the closure of Kabul airport for commercial aircraft has led it to explore other means to
transport medical supplies.
