In Afghanistan, people are going to desperate lengths to survive the second winter since the Taliban took control, including selling their daughters.

The UN has said a humanitarian "catastrophe" is now unfolding in the country.

When the Taliban took over in August 2021, foreign funds flowing into Afghanistan were frozen, triggering an economic collapse.

Now, families are taking desperate measures to survive, including selling organs and sedating their hungry children.
