Description
Afghanistan's Taliban government is launching a programme to tackle hunger, offering thousands of people wheat in exchange for labour. The Taliban says its food-for-work scheme will be rolled out around Afghanistan's major towns and cities and employ 40,000 men in the capital alone. The scheme will not pay labourers, targeting those who are currently unemployed and most at risk of starvation during the winter. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
