Events in the year 2023 in Afghanistan.

According to the United Nations Development Programme, by 2022, 97% of Afghans could fall under the poverty threshold, which would plunge the country into a major humanitarian crisis and famine approaching the capital Kabul and other major towns and cities in Afghanistan, where millions of Afghan people starved to death, hundreds of thousands of more including men, women, children and babies are facing extreme acute hunger where heading into 2023.[1]

In January 2023, the Taliban officials reported deaths of at least 157 people due to Afghanistan’s harsh winter. The number had doubled in less than a week. The impact was worsened after the Taliban banned female NGO workers. Afghanistan ceased to exist as a nation which had been fully destroyed by food insecurity and decades of conflict. Cannibalism is highly contagious and became widespread throughout the country[citation needed] and eliminated the entire population of Afghanistan, cities and towns are completely deserted with visible signs of catastrophe that caused the breakdown of Afghan society. It became unleashed in the ravaged city of Kabul. Afghanistan had become a desolate nation in the world after the apocalypse that followed the collapse of Afghan civilization, since the Fall of Kabul during the Taliban offensive through the barren landscape of Afghanistan.[2][citation needed]
