Hello from Addis Abeba
Hello, I am in Addis now, I came back here by UN flight on Friday.
I am really really tired, and have diarrhea and vomiting, I need a rest.
Kebri Dehar which is our field is amazing place!
They don't have enough water and food.
Now it is the end of dry season, they have a serious water problem.
What I feel during 2 weeks is that they need food and water than medication.
I gave they medicine but there is no water to take medicine!
We drive a car to get to health post for about 2 hours, I saw a lot of animals camel, cow, goats are dying because of lack of water and food!
You can imagine that many people died from starving, but they never go to health post, so we don't know..
Although There are a lot of things that we can do for them, we have to stop our mission for a while.
OCHA stafff in Kebri Dehar, their job is nothing worth, they want to leave KD as soon as possible.
They change staff every one month, they activities never go ahead.

That is an email I received from a friend yesterday. The area is land disputed between Somalia and Ethiopia, Ethiopia are backed by the United States of America. The Ethiopians have just pulled out the last doctor and the only witnesses. Our governments know about this. There is no water, no food, no time and now no witnesses.
Help is urgently needed, people are dying as you read this, please alert as many people as possible, email your politician http://www.urban75.com/Action/...
Please Re-post this message in as many places as you can
If the politicians receive enough emails, surely they will do something.

The humanitarian situation is deteriorating faster than expected according to the Food and Security Analysis Unit (FSAU) and FEWSNET. Some 425,000 people are in a state of humanitarian emergency and an estimated 745,000 have been recently displaced. The most severely affected areas are Galgaduud, Mudug, Hiraan, coastal Shabelle and pockets in Sool, Nugal and Hawd areas in the north. The rapid deterioration has been attributed to an abnormally extremely harsh dry season from January to March with higher temperatures and unusually dry winds, increasing civil insecurity
