About 136 internally displaced persons, mostly women and children from
Mboro area in Besselia County, have arrived in the UN Protection of
Civilians' site (PoC) in Wau town last week in search for food, a camp
manager said.

Reportedly, at least 13 people died from hunger recently in Besselia
County in Wau state.

Juma Suleiman, who is in charge of the UN camp in Wau, told Radio
Tamazuj yesterday that the new arrivals were experiencing bad
humanitarian conditions due to acute shortages of food and medicines
in Besselia County.

He called on humanitarian organizations operating in Wau town to
assist the new arrivals as soon as possible.
