Where partners work in humanitarian work around the clock to provide assistance but the money runs out. and warned it will close nearly 80 health facilities in coming weeks unless they receive support, has already been reduced food rations and scheduled off dozens of life-saving programmes. "The consequences of this are enormous and deeply" in advance to thank donors for pledges in response to the recent humanitarian response plan launched in cooperation with the European Union in Brussels on 4 June last.
