Thousands of malnourished children in Afghanistan face severe consequences because of a critical funding gap, according to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). Melanie Galvin, UNICEF's Chief of Nutrition, said on the organization's official Twitter account on Thursday that it urgently needs additional funding to provide severe acute malnutrition children with ready-t-use medical food (RUTF) and life-saving treatment.
