UN warns of medical shortages in Afghanistan

The WHO say they are "exploring all options to bring more medicines" into Afghanistan, to help combat the growing humanitarian crisis in the country. Thursday's bomb attack further complicated the aid mission. We speak to Acting Health Minister Dr Wahid Majrooh.

Also in the programme: the United Nations refugee agency is warning that up to half a million more Afghan refugees could leave their country by the end of the year.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Afghan journalist Bilal Sarwary and Eunice Goes, a Portuguese-born professor of politics at Richmond University.
