UN running out of cash to feed Darfur

The UN is running out of cash to feed more than one million people living in Sudan’s Darfur region, the scene of a two year conflict.

Carlos Veloso, World Food Programme’s Emergency Coordinator for Darfur, said the non-cereal part of the daily ration would be cut by half next month as a last resort to help stretch current food supplies through July and August – the region’s traditional lean months.
