Szöveg: kormany.hu | 2012. május 11. 14:03Spring has arrived in Afghanistan: the snowmelt rushing down from the mountains and the week-long continuous rain has turned the roads impassable and hundreds of houses uninhabitable, while large areas of arable land have been inundated.

Since the beginning of the flood, in cooperation with the Afghan security organs they have distributed several tons of dry food – flour, rice, sugar, oil – as well as blankets and articles of clothing among the families in need.
By cleaning the riverbed of a several-kilometer-long main canal in Dahana-e Ghori District, the Hungarian contingent has contributed to stabilizing the area, as without these works, another flooding would completely destroy the central irrigation system of the region.
