The Japanese government plans to provide assistance to Afghanistan, a government spokesperson said on Thursday, after an earthquake there killed at least 1,000 people.
Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Seiji Kihara told a regular news conference that the government was coordinating moves to "provide necessary support promptly" as well as assessing the situation to grasp local needs.

Aid will be used by Taliban to rally support.
Just like how Al-Shabab does with UN aid.

I wouldn’t waste my time and money with the Taliban.
Open schools to girls and we will be happy to help.

A disaster of this magnitude requires support and aid so Japan should offer as much as possible, the problem is still how to make that aid reach the people that are in need because of the lack of infrastructure.

Some common sense action from Japan. An earthquake is a natural disaster, no one is to blame for the fatalities
