"This batch of cassava leaves is the first meal Rita and her family will have today. “We will remove the leaves, put them in boiling water and add salt. We only have leaves to eat, because we have not received any other food”, her mother Fatra Omar explains.
The ICRC distributed emergency food to 1,000 families in the village of Deim Zubeir in northwest South Sudan on August 10 and 11. The assistance will feed 6,000 people. According to local authorities, Deim Zubeir is home to 36,000 people, but the community is now hosting 18,000 displaced persons, a state that is stretching food and water resources.”
