News of the suspension was relayed to U.N. agencies right before the September immunization campaign was due to start.

No reason was given for the suspension, and no one from the Taliban -controlled government was immediately available for comment.

The WHO has confirmed 18 polio cases in Afghanistan this year , all but two in the south of the country.
