The humanitarian situation in Pakistan has a “positive trajectory” despite an ongoing crisis, according to a senior UN official who has just visited the country.

Five million Pakistanis have been displaced by conflict in recent years, but many are now returning home.

The country is also sheltering Afghan refugees who have fled insecurity over the border.

John Ging is the UN humanitarian office, OCHA’s Operations Director.

Daniel Dickinson asked him for an update on the crisis.
