An international aid group has reported that up to 150 children have died of cold-related illnesses in one part of a snowbound Afghan province.

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) on Thursday said a team of six doctors which had surveyed villages along a 60km stretch of highway in the province of Ghor were told of 140-150 child deaths.


The Ghor provincial government said last week it had confirmed 136 deaths, mostly of children, in four districts but the real toll may be more than 300.

Concerns dismissed

The Ministry of Heath has dismissed concerns expressed by CRS last week that more than 1000 children may have died in Ghor in what has been one of its worst winters for years.

Health Minister Sayyid Muhammad Amin Fatemi has played down the figures, saying on Wednesday that the number of confirmed child deaths caused by cold weather throughout the country in the past six weeks was 211.

Hicks said ministry statistics came only from areas that had health clinics. Since few villagers could access these, most deaths went unrecorded.

燃料と食糧不足のために，この冬たくさんの子供が死んでいるようだ。
その正確な数なんてのはもちろん判らない。

米占領軍はやる気がなく，カルザイ一派のカブール傀儡地方政権は全く無力。

せめて，お金や医薬品や着るものくらい送ってあげよう。
大半が軍閥に横取りされたとしても，少しは子供たちの手にはいるかもしれない。
