HAITI – The U.N.’s World Food Program announced a shortage of funds Monday saying it won’t be able to help 100,000 people in Haiti this month who urgently need assistance.
The agency said the 25% cut comes as a record 4.9 million people in the country of nearly 11 million need help with finding food.
Gang violence has worsened the situation, paralyzing the transportation of goods and preventing people from leaving their homes.
