Refugees Seek Food Aid in South Sudan

BENTIU, SOUTH SUDAN - MAY 5: Internally displaced people wait to register for a food distribution at a camp at the base of the United Nations Mission in South Sudan in Bentiu, South Sudan, May 5, 2014. Roughly twenty-five thousand IDPs live at the UNMISS base in Bentiu, and one million Southern Sudanese have been displaced from their homes and unable to plant crops to harvest the next season as the civil war rages in the country, pitting ethnic Nu'er against Dinka. According to the United Nations official coordinating humanitarian aid in South Sudan, if the civil war doesn't stop, and the country does not receive international aid, South Sudan will face the worst starvation in Africa since the 1980s, when hundreds of thousands of people died in Ethiopias famine.
