Health facilities forced to close due to funding loss

March 12, 2025

As reported on 12 March 2025: Across the country, 18 health facilities supported by Save the Children and its partner have been forced to close due to the loss of funding. Only 14 Save the Children clinics have enough funding to remain open for one month, and without new financial support, they will be forced to close. This comes after an executive order was signed, suspending US foreign aid for three months. Sources: Save the Children and TOLO. Return to Afghanistan home page.
