In news from Afghanistan, the nation’s central bank condemned U.S. President Joe Biden’s executive order last week, which seeks to seize, then split $7 billion in U.S.-held Afghan assets between the families of 9/11 victims and so-called "humanitarian assistance" for Afghanistan. 

Kabul, February 14 (RHC)-- In news from Afghanistan, the nation’s central bank condemned U.S. President Joe Biden’s executive order last week, which seeks to seize, then split $7 billion in U.S.-held Afghan assets between the families of 9/11 victims and so-called "humanitarian assistance" for Afghanistan. 

The Afghan central bank said the move is “an injustice to the people of Afghanistan.”  Aid groups also blasted the news, as millions in Afghanistan face extreme poverty, hunger and displacement.
