Hundreds of children have died in nutrition centres across Somalia, the UN children’s agency said on Tuesday, a day after the global body warned that parts of the country will be hit by famine in coming months.
The centres are for children with severe acute malnutrition as well as illnesses such as measles, cholera or malaria and offer a snapshot of the situation across the country. US national security adviser Jake Sullivan said the United States was “gravely concerned by this dire projection and the significant scale of need throughout the country and region.”Ahmed Shire, information minister for the state of Glamudug, north of the capital Mogadishu, said 210 people had died from malnutrition in recent months.“These people were struggling with the drought that killed half of their animals. Al Shabaab looted the remaining animals.
“The thousands of families who remain are just skeletons. If not immediately helped they will follow suit,” she said, adding that most people were too poor to afford a proper burial. “Children are buried like garbage in the alleys and along the walls,” she said.
They battle for hunger and greed,now children's live are catastrophically in chaos,crisis and nutritious danger.
Oh my God.
