Envoy: Iran Sent 30 Aid Shipments to Afghanistan
UNITED NATIONS (Dispatches) -- Iran’s permanent ambassador to the UN says the Islamic Republic stands by the people of Afghanistan and has used its capacities and facilities to overcome the challenges it has faced over the last four decades. “Iran has hosted millions of refugees, who have unfortunately received the least international aid in the last 40 years. Iran has dispatched more than 30 shipments of humanitarian aid to Afghan people in recent months. This is just one example of the assistance that Iran has provided to the people of Afghanistan,” Majid Takht-Ravanchi told a virtual UN donor conference co-hosted by Britain, Germany, and Qatar on Thursday.
