Charities say Taliban intimidation diverts aid to Taliban members and causes

Afghan women wait for a free bread. Charities allege that the Taliban interferes with their distribution of aid by pressuring them to funnel money to the Taliban and its supporters.

Aid workers in Afghanistan claim the Taliban is using threats and violence to control the way aid is distributed at a time when aid is more critical than ever.
