Kabul: Afghan daily members are selling off their  belongings in order to meet their ends as the country is struggling amid Taliban rule.

In a tweet,  Martin Schuepp, Director of Operations of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), said an average Afghan family can only afford 82% of basic food commodities, expressing concerns over the economic and humanitarian situation in Afghanistan.

"The increased prices of basic commodities in #Afghanistan make it difficult for most people to make ends meet.An average Afghan family could only afford 82% of basic food commodities, not leaving money for other essential needs. More support to the most vulnerable is crucial,"  Martin Schuepp tweeted.

Afghanistan is currently ruled by Taliban.

The Taliban took control over the country last year by removing the earlier government which was in power.
