23 people die from hunger in Terekeka state: official At least 23 people had died of starvation in Tali County in South Sudan’s Terekeka State since late June, a local official said.
Tali County Commissioner Angelo Maring told Radio Tamazuj on Tuesday that his people are dying of hunger saying citizens have resorted to extreme coping techniques of eating leaves from trees as food runs out. He pointed out that many people are suffering from diarrhoea from eating the leaves every day. The local official appealed to aid agencies to support the needy people of Tali County as soon as possible. Tens of thousands of South Sudanese have been killed and millions displaced since the outbreak of war in the world's youngest nation in December 2013. -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/southsudankob View this message at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/southsudankob/topic-id/message-id For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
