Japan Allocates $3 Million To Support Afghans, Says UN
The United Nations Population Fund said Thursday that Japan has allocated $3 million in assistance to Afghanistan, funding that will support about 210,000 people.
In a post on X, the UN agency said the funding will be used to provide health, psychological and social services to vulnerable communities, including people affected by natural disasters.
Japan’s embassy in Afghanistan also announced in December 2025 that Tokyo had allocated $19.5 million in humanitarian assistance to Afghans, saying it hopes the support will make a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable people.
Since the Taliban returned to power, Japan has provided a total of $549 million in assistance to Afghanistan over the past four years, according to Japanese and UN agencies.
