Operation Lifeline Helps Displaced People in Southern Sudan

21 August 1998

About 2.5 million people face a famine in Sudan. The people displaced by the war in Southern Sudan are being helped by Operation Lifeline Sudan, a consortium of the World Food Programme (WFP), UNICEF and 35 non-governmental organizations. The nine year relief effort has saved thousands of lives and the World Food Programme says it will need 54 million to provide emergency aid until April 1999.
Workers pick up the food supplies air-dropped by the World Food Programme.
