flag UN cuts Ethiopia refugee rations to 40% due to funding shortages, threatening child nutrition.

flag The UN World Food Programme has cut food rations for 780,000 refugees in Ethiopia to 40% of the recommended amount due to severe funding shortages, providing less than 1,000 calories per person daily. flag Only 70,000 newly arrived refugees from Sudan and South Sudan will receive full rations for six months. flag WFP warns the cuts are already harming children and families, with nutrition supplies for vulnerable groups set to run out by December. flag The agency needs $230 million to continue operations, as ongoing conflict in Amhara and climate disasters in Somali regions strain aid efforts. flag This marks the second ration reduction this year, raising concerns about future crisis response.
