UN Appeals for $204 Million for Hungry in Southern African - ABC News: "The U.N. food agency has declared its highest-level emergency in drought-stricken southern Africa and is appealing for $204 million immediately to purchase food and transport it to the region to help millions of hungry people.
World Food Program Executive Director Ertharin Cousin told reporters in a telephone briefing from hard-hit Malawi on Tuesday that the El Nino-induced drought — which also affected South America and Ethiopia — has devastated crops and caused harvests to fail in southern Africa."
