Key takeaway In June 2026, 60 access incidents were recorded by humanitarian partners across Afghanistan, representing a 50 per cent increase compared with the previous month.
Why this matters
The rise in access incidents in Afghanistan has significant implications for the delivery of humanitarian aid in the country. With a 50 percent increase in incidents compared to the previous month, humanitarian partners are facing substantial challenges in implementing their activities. The fact that interference in humanitarian activities and violence against personnel and assets are the most frequently reported constraints suggests that aid workers are operating in an increasingly hostile environment. The suspension of 21 humanitarian activities as a result of these incidents will likely exacerbate the humanitarian needs of affected populations, particularly in the Western and Southern Regions. As the situation continues to deteriorate, it is crucial for humanitarian organizations to work closely with local authorities and other stakeholders to negotiate access and ensure the safe delivery of aid. The ability of humanitarian partners to respond effectively to the needs of affected communities will depend on their ability to navigate these complex and challenging circumstances.
