Seven-month-old Samera has dark, saucer-shaped eyes that look out while a nurse lovingly cradles her head and cleans her terribly frail body.
She is one of the countless innocent people suffering from the effects of severe acute malnutrition, one of the leading causes of death in children under the age of five, as a result of the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan.
Temor, her 12-year-old brother, is anxious and feels powerless.
