Families displaced from districts where fighting is going on between Afghan security forces and the Taliban, wait for relief as they live in temporary shelters in Kandahar, Afghanistan, 27 July 2021. Civilian casualties in the armed conflict in Afghanistan increased by 47 percent in first six months of 2021 compared to the same period last year, according to the latest report by United Nations on 26 July 2021. This spike is mainly due to an increase in Taliban offensives in the wake of the withdrawal of the United States and NATO forces from Afghanistan starting May 1. (Photo by M. Sadiq/EPA/EFE)
