Children in Kabul working for a piece of bread

More and more children are having to work to help support their families, amidst an economic collapse in Afghanistan, the BBC says.

Even before the Taliban takeover, hundreds of thousands of Afghan children were forced to earn a living because of widespread poverty.

However, since the group came to power, international funding has reportedly been largely cut off. 

Sanctions have also been imposed and, as a result, unemployment is rising, the BBC noted.
