KABUL (Pajhwok): Da Afghanistan Bank (DAB) has confirmed taking delivery of $32 million in aid and transferring the amount to Afghanistan International Bank (AIB).

The central bank welcomed the injection of cash into Afghanistan’s struggling economy and said: “The transit of the shipment from the airport to Afghanistan International Bank was facilitated by it.

DAB tweeted: “Da Afghanistan Bank will appreciate any humanitarian action that leads to the introduction of currency and assistance to the poor sections of society, and will do its part effectively.”

With 50 percent of Afghans facing starvation, the previous shipment of $19.2 million was delivered last month.
