AlJazeeraEnglish

A wave of freezing temperatures is sweeping across much of Afghanistan. In roughly two weeks, more than 150 people have died. Most were those living in remote rural villages cut off by heavy snowfalls. It has thought to be the coldest winter Afghanistan has experienced in a decade – with temperatures as low as minus 34 degrees Celsius. Aid efforts could be hampered by a ruling by the Taliban banning women from working in NGOs, which has halted operations in recent weeks. Al Jazeera’s Katia Lopez-Hodayan reports.

The Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) is due to visit Turkey for the first time since the 2018 murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Istanbul. Relations between the two countries, already frayed before the killing, were broken after the journalist’s assassination. Khashoggi’s killing at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul four years ago grabbed headlines worldwide, with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan saying that the “highest levels” of the Saudi government ordered the killing. However, a recent thawing of ties between Turkey and some Gulf states, along with regional and financial challenges, have led Ankara and Riyadh to repair their relationship.
