Kabul is grappling with a severe water crisis, with experts warning that the city could run out of water within the next five years. More than half of the wells in Kabul are already dry, putting six million residents at risk. The UN has called this situation unprecedented and has raised concerns about the humanitarian catastrophe that may unfold if water scarcity continues to worsen. Women and children are particularly affected, often carrying heavy water containers in search of this essential resource. The crisis has been exacerbated by unsustainable foreign aid projects, and as some reports suggest, Kabul may be on the brink of becoming the first capital city in modern history to run dry. Urgent action is needed as the community implores the interim government to expand water supply measures.
