The United Nations on Sunday said 800,000 people in Niger face food insecurity and that some 84,000 are in immediate need of assistance as the humanitarian crisis worsens in the impoverished landlocked African nation.
聯合國週日表示,尼日80萬人面臨糧食不足問題,約8萬4000人有立即救援之需,因為這個貧窮的非洲內陸國的人道危機惡化。
Struck by droughts and shortages of crops, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned in a bulletin that the hunger season, from June through August, poses a significant danger. The harvest generally comes in September.
