(Reuters) -The World Health Organization (WHO) on Monday said that the agency is concerned about funding shortages in Afghanistan which could force closure of 80% of WHO-supported essential health care services.
As of March 4, 167 health facilities had shut down in the country due to funding shortages and without urgent intervention, over 220 more facilities could close by June, WHO said in a statement.
