The new report by the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) on the consequences of attacks and conflicts on water and sanitation infrastructure in the world shows that almost a third of the population of Afghanistan, including 6.8 million children, does not have access to safe drinking water. According to this report, decades of war, destruction of water supply infrastructure, reductions in foreign aid and weakness in the rehabilitation of water networks have exacerbated the crisis of access to safe water in Afghanistan.
