Millions Close to Starvation in Congo
刚果数百万人几近饿死
Millions of people in the Democratic Republic of Congo could die of starvation in the next few months according to the UN’s World Food Programme. Many have fled their homes due to conflict in the province of Kasai. The conflict began in August 2016 after a local leader was killed by security forces. The conflict has since spread to five provinces. The UN says if it can’t deliver emergency funds and food before the monsoon season begins, the roads will become impassable and at least 3 million people could starve. Farmers who fled Kasai have missed two planting seasons.
根据联合国世界粮食计划署,刚果民主共和国有数百万人可能在接下来的几个月中饿死。很多人因为开赛省的冲突逃离了家园。2016年安保人员杀死一名当地领袖后发生了这些冲突。此后矛盾扩展到了5个省。联合国无法输送紧急资金和食物,因为季风季开始了,道路无法通行,至少有三百万人会挨饿。逃离开赛省的农民错过了两次种植季节。
