A doctor examines Adonay Gebrewahid,

a severely malnourished eight-month-old child,

as his father cradles him at a hospital in the Tigray region last month.

One survey in Tigray found a sharp increase

in households facing severe hunger in the months

after the WFP and USAID paused food aid in 2023.

UN food agency failed to act as U.S. aid was looted in Ethiopia

A severely malnourished two-month old, Birhane Kiros,

is treated at a hospital in the Tigray region of Ethiopia.

Food aid was suspended in the country

following the discovery of massive looting,

disrupting help for the hungry, aid workers say.

U.S. officials talk of 'industrial level' theft. Donated grain, they say,

was funneled to the Ethiopian and Tigrayan armies,

and black marketeers.

In an internal report,

the World Food Program cleared itself of wrongdoing

and pointed a finger at the hungry.
