Meet Injil Settlement,  “The One Kidney Village” of Afghanistan Where Residents Sell Their Kidneys To Survive

Meet Injil Settlement,  “The One Kidney Village” of Afghanistan Where Residents Sell Their Kidneys To Survive

 

 

Injil, a settlement near the city of Herat, Afghanistan, is now known as “one kidney village” because so many of the residents have sold their kidneys struggling to survive dire economic conditions.

Afghanistan was flung into financial crisis following the Taliban takeover last year, and hundreds of thousands are unemployed, with few options to feed their families.

Though it is illegal in most countries to sell organs, it has become a short-term solution for increasingly desperate people, as the practice is unregulated in Afghanistan.
