UNITED NATIONS —
The United Nations says it needs $4.4 billion by July to prevent famine in Yemen, South Sudan, Somalia and northeastern Nigeria.

U.N. humanitarian chief Stephen O'Brien, who just returned from field missions to the affected countries, told Security Council members Friday that the United Nations is facing its largest humanitarian crisis since the organization's creation. He said that without the necessary funding and full, safe and unimpeded access for aid workers, people will die.

"We stand at a critical point in history," O'Brien told council members. "Now, more than 20 million people across four countries face starvation and famine. Without collective and coordinated global efforts, people will simply starve to death."

He said all the regions on the brink of famine have one thing in common: They are conflict zones.

It's abhorrent when you think of the amount of food wasted here and elsewhere, food that people don't really need ,it's just greed ,we should eat to live,not live to eat, imagine waking up everyday to no food or even worse water ? We are so lucky here,What the people are going through there is REAL hardship,not when Maccy Ds is shut.

As long as muslim fundamentalist terrorists rule the roost in these countries, there will never be a solution. Any aid given will ultimately go to these bastards and not to the people it is intended for.
