And now its an absolute hell for everyone. Is that really progress?

Humanitarian Crisis: Over 60% of the population faces food insecurity. Millions are internally displaced, often living in overcrowded, inadequate, and unsafe, temporary shelters.

Economic Situation: The economy is devastated, with skyrocketing prices for basic goods, high unemployment, and a massive depletion of household resources.

Infrastructure and Health: Roughly half of all hospitals are non-functional. Access to electricity, clean water, and sanitation is severely limited.

Education and Safety: Roughly 1 in 4 schools are damaged or destroyed, affecting education access.

The security situation remains volatile, with an elevated risk of violence and armed conflict in various parts of the country.

As of late 2025, the situation remains dire, with continued, significant, and long-term deterioration in the daily lives of civilians.
