UN: more than 600 thousand people in Ukraine need food


“There is an urgent need to provide food assistance to more than 670 thousand people, 90% of which are located in areas not controlled by the government,” the report says.

OCHA informed that over the past 7 days, “in cooperation with non-governmental organizations rations were distributed among 4,4 thousand people in the LPR and among 10 thousand people in the DPR”. In addition, 500 tons of products were transferred to the Dnipropetrovsk region for internally displaced persons.

The report indicates an acute shortage of drinking water and medicines. “The health of both internally displaced persons and other people affected by the conflict is deteriorating and requires action. Cardiovascular diseases, mental disorders and acute respiratory infections are widespread. Cases of malnutrition and acute diarrhea are reported in areas not controlled by the government, ”the report authors write.

The document emphasizes that the impossibility of a quick response to the needs of people is caused by a shortage of funds. “As of April 3, donors donated or pledged about 57 million to implement a humanitarian response plan, which is 18% of 316 million needed for 2015 a year,” the report says.

The largest amount (for April 3) was allocated by the Russian Federation - $ 5 million.

According to UN estimates, in total “about 5 million people in Ukraine need help, the number of internally displaced people in the country is 1,2 million, and more 777 thousand have taken refuge in neighboring countries, mainly in Russia”.

The total number of victims indicated in the report is 6090, although the actual number of dead may be more. "Full information about the victims during the last escalation of hostilities (from mid-January to mid-February) is still expected," they noted in the OCHA.

    The document emphasizes that the inability to quickly respond to people's needs is caused by a lack of funds. “As of April 3, donors have transferred or promised to allocate about 57 million for the implementation of the humanitarian response plan, which is 18% of the 316 million needed for 2015”

      It reminds a joke when in a white house a young man fell behind the tour and went into the hall with two thoughtful generals.
      Asks them, what are you doing?
      The generals answer - we plan to kill two million Iraqis and our plumber in Iraq!
      Guy -A plumber why?
      One general to another - I told you that nobody cares about two million Iraqis ...

      Something similar here.

          It’s very convenient, what’s happening in Ukraine now, isn’t it? Somehow it’s not so noticeable at home. A couple of days ago I drank tea and let’s think I’ll watch TV, I haven’t watched such shit for a long time (Channel One), it struck me that they took up alcoholization. What would it be, interesting ... And even advertising with Yakubovich (with a little specialist), where they in Santa Claus costumes drink water, from faceted, without biting, sniffing ... like some kind of drunkards. Besides disgust there is nothing evokes. as well as "Field of Miracles", but for some reason this has long been.

    The FSA has absolutely no interest in how many people in the ruin are starving. The more it does not survive, the better for mattress toppers. Whether the Ukrainians themselves will understand this is another question. It is clear that no one will try to assess Russia's contribution to the holding of humanitarian convoys to the South - East. But the report does not completely assess the actions of the “democratically elected government” to overcome the humanitarian catastrophe. Although this is understandable - was it Psaka who made this report of OCHA?

    “There is an urgent need to provide food assistance to more than 670 thousand people, 90% of which are located in areas not controlled by the government,” the report says.

    Forgot to point out that the organizers of this situation are the Kiev-hot authorities in the West, who closed the transportation of goods to the territory of New Russia. And the main salvors from a humanitarian catastrophe are dozens of humanitarian convoys from Russia hated by the West.

    And how will they carry out this assistance? Poroshenko will transfer the money, and let him do it himself somehow? Convoys from the West do not pass.

    The tragedy of Ukraine lies in the fact that in Western projects it was assigned the role of the military-political bridgehead of the United States, directed against Russia, in a more precise sense, against the all-Russian world, all-Russian civilization.

    Something these figures do not show anything. Only 670 thousand people counted, of which more than 600 live in the DPR and LPR. 10% -67 thousand people get the rest of Ukraine. I doubt that millions of pensioners receive 1-1.5 thousand hryvnia after paying utility bills live happily. I think you need to increase the figure of 67 thousand by 2 orders of magnitude, closer to the truth. hi
