Millions of Ethiopians go hungry again as US, UN pause aid after massive theft

In the aftermath of a devastating two-year war in northern Ethiopia that resulted in famine and hunger, Tesfa Kiros Meresfa, an Orthodox Christian priest, finds himself resorting to pleading for food from door to door.

Unfortunately, the dire situation has been exacerbated by a significant obstacle: a standoff between Ethiopia’s government, the United States, and the United Nations.

This impasse has led to the disappearance of urgently needed grain and oil, leaving millions of people in despair.

The United States officials assert that this may be the largest case of food aid theft on record, intensifying the suffering of those already ravaged by the war.

Tesfa, overwhelmed by the anguish he and his people are enduring, finds himself at a loss for words to describe their dire circumstances, the Associated Press reported.
