Kabul's Makrorian Fifth housing project resumes after 12-year halt, 70% complete

Construction of the Makrorian Fifth residential project in Kabul has resumed after a 12-year delay, with the first phase 70% complete. The high apartment prices, up to $166,000, raise affordability concerns for most Afghans. This signals a modest recovery in Afghanistan's construction sector under the Taliban, but economic constraints persist.
