Africa: Blacks suffer easily massively from Black Wars: Intensifying Congo conflict puts 1 million children at risk of acute malnutrition – My Comments

[Notice how easily Blacks run into problems, even with their small wars. Jan]GENEVA, July 12 (Reuters) – More than one million children are at risk from acute malnutrition in Democratic Republic of Congo as rising violence drives up needs among millions of displaced people, the World Health Organization said on Friday.
The impact on civilians of the more than two-year conflict between Congolese forces and the Rwanda-backed M23 militia in eastern areas of the country is worsening, causing more people to flee with 2.7 million displaced in North Kivu alone.
Severe flooding and landslides as well as long-simmering conflicts affecting other parts of the country have worsened needs and around 25 million currently require humanitarian aid, according to the WHO.
“If immediate action is not taken to address basic needs in DRC over 1 million children will suffer from acute malnutrition,” WHO’s Senior Emergency Officer Adelheid Marschang told a press briefing in Geneva.
“The acute malnutrition is a result of widespread, increasing and also recurrent food insecurity in the areas that have seen conflict for years and decades now but where we now very recently see an escalation,” she said.
The children at risk were mostly among the millions already displaced by fighting in eastern areas but also children in the central Kasai provinces, she said. Already hundreds of thousands of children are suffering from acute malnutrition, she said, which can make them more vulnerable to infection and disease and requires sustained treatment.
The WHO has registered over 20,000 cases of cholera across the country so far this year and 60,000 cases of measles, with real numbers probably higher due to insufficient surveillance.
“The needs are just increasing exponentially, especially very recently and the projections are that this will continue,” Marschang said.
Adding to the challenges, humanitarian access has been “severely constrained by military presence around (displacement)sites and health facilities, bureaucratic impediments, roadblocks disrupting aid delivery”, she added.
The U$2.6 billion funding plan for Congo is currently only 26% funded, U.N. data showed.
Video: Hamas attack on Israel: Is this a Life or Death fight for the existence of Israel?
Some South African supporters of Loving Life asked for my opinion of this war in Israel and what it could lead to. This is my analysis of the Middle East and what I think about this war between Israel and Hamas. I also look at the Syrian Civil war and we take a look at ALL the Arab/Muslim nations from Egypt to Iran and what threats they might pose to Israel. I also discuss American and Russian military power in the region. Can the region go nuclear? I go into quite a lot of political and military analysis of this conflict.
Video & Audio: What is a Jew? Are Jews a Religion or a Race or both?
When one is trying to educate other Whites about Jews, you get people turning around and saying that Jews are only a religion. But others think that Jews might be a race. In this video I discuss the confusion relating to Jews when one speaks to other Whites.
