IDP in Abyan are deprived of food baskets

ABYAN, Jan. 16 (YPA) – A number of displaced people from Hodeidah and Taiz provinces, who are in the camps in Zanjabar city of Abyan province, southern Yemen, have complained of not spending them the monthly food and relief aid planned by CARE International, local sources told Yemen Press Agency on Tuesday.

According to the sources, the IDPs suffer from very difficult living conditions due to the lack of food.

They said that their suffering in the camps increased due to the delayed disbursement of their food allocations, although they have been in the warehouses in Zanjabar City for 20 days.

The IDPs called on Care International organization to quickly disburse the relief aid they deserve.

A number of organizations complained last week of food theft in southern areas and some areas in northern Yemen.
