According to a report released on March 3 by the United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on Afghanistan, 700,000 people have lost their jobs in Afghanistan since the Taliban took control, with the construction, civil service, and agricultural industries being the most badly impacted, reports peoplesdispatch.org. “Around 1,000 families have been forcibly removed from their lands and displaced from several villages in Daikundi Province since September 2021… At least 2,800 Hazara residents were forcibly displaced from 15 villages in Daikundi and Uruzgan Provinces in September 2021 alone,” the report said. “The Taliban’s response to armed resistance by the National Resistance Front in Panjshir province and other provinces continues to adversely impact civilians in breach of international human rights and humanitarian laws,” the report added. “As many as 1,855 grave violations were committed against children between January and September 2022,” the report pointed out. The report further said, “This crisis has been exacerbated by the unintended consequences of political cautiousness and over compliance with (US imposed) sanctions, despite the humanitarian exemptions afforded by the Security Council,” the report further said. the report adds that an “estimated 18.9 million people are experiencing acute food insecurity, a number which is expected to rise to 20 million, and over 90% of peoples are suffering from some form of food insecurity, with single-parent female-headed households and children being disproportionately affected.”

Special Representative for Afghanistan at the United States (US) Department of State, Thomas West said, that US is engaging with Taliban despite 'grave concern' with its policies, reports Tolo News on March 4. He stated, "We are engaging with the Taliban ourselves despite some of what I have said here that reflects our grave concern about the Taliban’s policies towards the Afghan people. We do favour a policy of engagement ourselves, that is why I met with the Taliban leaders in December, I suspect that I will meet Taliban leaders in the future and talk about our interests in Afghanistan". He further said, "We have not seen significant steps towards normalisation with the Taliban, they do not have a permanent representative sitting in New York at the United Nations, they do not have formal relationships with international financial institutions, they do not have diplomats serving abroad in the West, they do not have access to suspended assets in foreign countries, and I do not envision that we will budge on any of these issues until they make more responsible decisions." "What we want to see is the emergence of a dialogue among Afghans inside Afghanistan to begin with who have genuine support in their communities with the Taliban in a structured and serious and organised fashion to talk about the future of the country, to talk about a constitution, to talk about the basic rights of Afghans—that process has not unfolded in any serious manner," he added.

On March 14, Global Terrorism Index (GTI) reported that Afghanistan remains the country most impacted by terrorism for the fourth consecutive year, despite attacks and deaths falling by 75 per cent and 58 per cent, respectively, reports The Khaama Press News Agency. The GTI reported that Afghanistan recorded 633 fatalities in 2022, despite terrorism-related deaths declining by 866 in 2022, a 58 per cent improvement over 2021. The report attributed this drop to the Taliban taking control of the country after the fall of Kabul in August 202. The report stated, “The Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) has emerged as the most active terrorist group in Afghanistan following the Taliban takeover of the country and was responsible for the deaths of 422 people in 2022 – accounting for almost 67 per cent of the total terrorism-related deaths in the country for the year.” The report further read, “Additionally, counter-terrorism agencies remain concerned that the Taliban may be supporting terrorist organizations, particularly Al-Qaeda, and that Afghanistan could become a haven for terrorists”.
