lation that is affecting the livelihood of the corner and not in yemen. a tongue for short address is not a situation that only the international red cross is flagging. this is a reality for or humanitarian actors which makes the situation even extra dangerous . just to give you an example, 2021 pledge in a number for a human age operation collectively reached only 50 percent to day 27 percent of it was reached. so it is a pattern that has been happening for the last few years and is impacting, own humanitarian actors, pushing them to cut their programming to cut their activities. and the price is being paid by the minions of your money that really are relying to day on these activities to be able to access the most basic of the, of the services. which means that more yemenis, what is the pon, great to night, to end,

more children not be able to go to school. more women will not be able to deliver in hospitals or to access life's even health care. this is the reality of 8 fonts shortages. the current number of refugees across africa is staggering. some 30000000 people of left their home seeking peace on a better life in another nation on the continent. next, in our new show, africa, not we ask, come the countries receiving those figures cope on. if not, what happens then? ah ah

ah ah the some say the world is a global village where every human being is connected to a shade history and destiny. 510000000 square kilometers of mass and 326000000 cubic miles of water. but no, where is there was spot for a person like him, or like her. more than 100000000 people are currently displaced from the homes.

one in tweet is in africa, no one abandoned the home and is forced to no one month for board unless his whole city is running with him. no one carries the anthem of his homeland under his breath to a phone country. unless he is a refugee who hello and welcome to this week's african now. so we're coming to you from the kenyan capital ny rosie, which serves as the central hub for refugees team from central african countries. can you host some of the world's largest numbers of refugees and some of the world's largest refugee camps in this week? so we explore the growing number of refugees on the continent at the moment there. awesome. 30000000 refugees. asylum seekers and internally displaced people in

africa. we ask the question, why have these numbers come about? and who is to blame? we posed our 1st difficult questions to the u. s. h os adam up to molest from the united nations assistance mission in somalia. thank you for joining us. why does the horn of africa have the most number of refugees? well, it is one of the most affected regions of the world. michael, i'm a change also the region some of the longest lingering interactions you got so many or you can see that there are groups that are waging war against

governments. so not also contributes to any similarity that needs to live in yard froze. and why are so many refugees from somalia? well, there are few drivers of population movements with the inside the country or out to the outside. and those are conflict. and somebody has seen more than a fair share of complex since the collapse of the central government in 1991 . and as we speak, there is a war going on here. the government fighting against the instructions. and up to this, the main factor, the 1000000 for population movement across the whole of africa is climate change. but broadly speaking, if you look at the,

the bill from the indian ocean to the 2nd in west africa. this is the region that is most affected by climate change in the entire world. and this way you see that in these also most of the region in the world by conflicts. how many somali refugees are in other countries and how many internally displaced people? are there in your country? well, i don't have an exact number of for the use of somebody in go near. if you lose. it started since the early 1900 ninety's since $991.00 to be exact. so it is hard to give you an exact figure of how many somebody's are actually driven use in other countries. some people will as far as 5000000 somebody's in other countries as to the intel in displaced the number that we have is

3800000 people. some of them displace most recently, and some of them have been in displace gums for extended periods of time. what can be done to deal with the situation? 2 things need to be done concurrently. one is to provide as much assistance as possible to save as many lives as possible. we estimate that this year 22 and 3 is point 2 into 3000000. somebody's and that is almost half of the population. we need some form of assess all of those. we anticipate that 517000 children will we see nearly acutely managed between april and this year. therefore, we have to scale up to get a response to save as many life as we can. but given the fact that this is climate

induced prizes, we also need some tenuously to invest more inclement adaptation and with management. and we're going to vision. and those kind of interventions require development in this means that would enable the company to adapt to this rapidly, intensifying an escalating climate change. what sort of help does the united nations need in order to be able to continue to help the effect of communities? we need to that of help, we need assistance that would allow us to save lives and that is mainly in for key set of health nutrition for security and water and sanitation. those are the key. it is

of course that are other areas as well. so shows protection and so on. that's on the one site that's on the live saving site. that the, the you in also works on development in accordance with the national grants. so the way it works in that, that is a national loan implant. and then that is a cooperation from where the government and the united nations and the cooperation framework is mainly to enable us to support the government as the involvement initiatives. and when we see that there is some relative focus on the humanitarian leaf component, we see less investment being done by the donor community on the development site. and we, we just think that to bring this cycle in this humidity in closes,

we need to much the interventions development in the ridge. do you see an end to the crisis they see and into the crisis when the end will only come? if resilience is built, if someone is enable to be a strong that build the infrastructure, do the climate annotation and develop natural disasters have many countries in the world, but someone is for a unity lead to discuss the cause of perfect situations we have in order was number from people in need of immediate assistance. so this is unsustainable and that's why the only way to end it is to, in this more in the development of a country in northeastern kenya, in a semi arid district,

the dob refugee complex is the wolf. just refugee camp. it's made up of 3 refugee camps and bates back some 50 years. the 1st refugees arrived in 1991 escaping war enabling somalia. the next big influx was 20 years later as tamales saw refuge again in the camp from hunger and salvation. today as many as a quarter of a 1000000 people live in the da da, but the refugee complex from where our next report comes. it's now 3 days we've been waiting for the flight to, to dive. and again, the april closed edison william nieto was elected president of kenya. a few months ago he picked up the ties between government forces. and what's the bandits in that part of the country to cross? not another 55 between the side meant that the a post was close to flight coming to the east for the country. not only is that

he's mostly somali refugees came to can yet fling war in the own country, only to find themselves in the midst of another conflict. bandit, use the refugee to cover, moving in and around them, and laying improvised explosive vices targeting security forces. so not only to the way future, you have to deal with cost camp conditions and now a conflict. but there's also clipping dropped and famine. and each day the movie g, y to somalia, the so called climate refugees did not leave when there was conflict. but they know leaving and pushing wilson program to beyond capacity. it's struggling to feed everyone and can't always exist. attempts, fire road because a complete tech band. even cells need food. gina, thank you so much for joining us. what is the situation like at the moment? but typically with regards to the refugee camps in kenya, when it comes to fi,

distribution, look, thanks very much your interest. and there is a really challenging situation with route right across the horn of africa. if we just start with the regional situation at the moment, there are 22000000 people across the horn of africa who are struggling to find enough to h, including 4400000 people here in kenya. bad as it is in kenya, and we have more than a 1000000 women and children of 5 who are severely malnourished and the native treatment is even worse somewhere else. and so what we have seen is increasing numbers of people traveling across the border from ethiopia across the border from somalia, and arriving in the refugee camps driven by a mixture of climate and conflict graph from conflict. we've seen more than a 100000 people reached the gab refugee camp in the country near the somali border and rising numbers in the other main camp in the country in consumer refugees who

were refugees even before the food crisis began. specifically, that group of people, how have they been affected? there have been around half a 1000000 people in kenya. so quite a long period of time displaced by really a conflicts either coming across the border from places like sudan and south sudan, or from somalia, or even ethiopia. some of those people have been living in these encampments for so long that they have families of their own and been my privilege to meet with some of them and, and to understand what it was that drove them from, from their homes. in most cases it was, it was conflict and or a lack of access to food, water and the ability to simply raise your family in peace, which is something that all of us are the ultimately up to be able to change prior to even flyer to the drought, the situation for refugees in kenya was quite dia, refugees in kenya. last experience a full food ration in 2018. and depending on the availability of international food

assistance funded by governments around the world, then the the ration has been as low as 50 percent through parts of 2021. it's incredibly difficult a choice to make working in partnership with governments and, and the international community to, to make those decisions. but we recognize that is a challenging time for the whole world. and i would like to recognise all of those international donors, international governments who have continued to step up and who continue to deliver last year. all of the top 5 donors to the world food program in kenya increased as supporting this region. notwithstanding significant challenges that they may have also been addressing outside their constraints in western countries cannot hide from dave involvement in the refugee crisis in somalia,

which triggered by western involvement that led to the influx of somali refugees coming here to kenya. and that was back in 1992 when the us man, italian peacekeeping mission in somalia. but once started as famine relief ended in war at tamale's. do not appreciate americans wanting military operations in the country. like then again, now they will win the resources from 12 days from a conflict. they started, which they spiraled, and lead to mass migration. what the and now again, history is repeating itself. the, the most recent refugee crisis has again been triggered by the waste. this time

they've chosen the tiny african country of wonder as a destination for thousands of refugees seeking shelter. this time from europe, most notably ukraine. what this means is that you can country like denmark and britain effectively, offshoring refugees and sending them thousands of miles away as human cargo. so as not to have to deal with the problem on a day by day basis. we now travel to one just to see what preparations are being made for these refugees preparations for the camp under way and will do the potations was scheduled for april last year. then june. they have since been back tracked due to logistical issues and opposing court battles. it started with a been british prime minister, bobby johnson, announcing plans to deport illegal ukrainian refugees, to wonder. as an incentive, he pledged a 120000000 pounds to the one beat president. poor. couldn't that it was presented

as once again. you have come to the aid of the world, but it left many unanswered questions. why wonder and why in africa, even ukrainians himself, i'm not happy. as not only is wonder miles away. it's also a language and cultural barrier. the british public itself has pointed out that it's government has accepted white ukrainians and even pleaded with locals to accommodate them. while prom ones are the ones likely to be deported. so much more claiming there was no institutional racism in the system. the move has gone to a court battle, which the u. k. one. meanwhile, the one dim president continues to take a refugee from neighboring democratic republic of congo, with a conflict between the government and m. 23 rebels. there's no way we can are keeping house to refugees for which we are later on held accountable in some way or even abused about refugees as a result of ethnic cleansing based in another country. we must be a dumping ground of these people who are being deprived of their rights. but

surprisingly welcome mcclain, for his country has no capacity to have neighboring populations. he has accepted the request for ukrainian refugees, one to know faces the same fate as the camps in kenya, with refugees being sent from the west. will one to be able to cope with the escalation, constant upkeep of refugees caused by another waste and conflict. people innocent people dying every day, even on a single and different television. the different radios, listening the news, but they didn't even take a step to lead to the solution. i couldn't tell the world to hear my voice to try their best to stop these killings of every day of innocent people like i say,

a new modem to a new way or some us municipally, the united nation, their budget, our neighbors come killing still got to us government, not even to protect us. i goes to do the, to hear my voice. to says ling melinda, we are people clear to like other people we are god. is it clear to but do you like animal? we are voiceless. i tell do, i'll get to hear my voice and to look at the solution over michael and when you're melinda dying, i saw kids. they dug women. they kill him and ripping on the cutting there. but is the increase of

wifi chief and the decrease of budget by the united nations means that this problem will only get worse cup of vet with climate change and also the increasing number of conflicts in africa. and it's clear why many people here feel desolate and disillusioned behind me. you can see they got a refugee where you can see the display people just behind me. we have mo, done 100000. you can call these people who are still clean from them. 23 cruises, and also we have mo, done people who don't have access to their food. they don't have access. also today you monetary assistance. so the, i still need food and are so according to the testimonies from our different people

who are we're living around the ny, specially near obama territory, and also a different areas around where there is the closest between the m $23.00 and they kimberly's army, the airport, the seed. there is a, a very serious situation wanting some bob way washington's policy of imposing crippling sanctions on the mcgarvey government for 25 years. basically left that country in financial room by stating that the protracted demonization of zimbabwe is mainly from beetle western states. is here to us out of sunless, predatory loan military brilliance which crumbled the mike, slanted british imperialist. i need to sneeze. of course, that was because we had russia in taina is our key allies in dismantling tradition on which was a proxy to the imperialist british on this plan fed to study. god forbid of mister

least, sovereign is what is attracted, a sustained type once evolved and again symbol was deemed in emily because of the lynn to form program was dividends have notably revived ours. but when economy to the shame of countries we impose sanctions on us. it also created an immigration exodus that saw some 4000000 people move across the border into south africa as refugees from south africa that we bring you this next for port to sanctions actually work i, they just the source of economic hardship and displacement. we came here to windsor one of the multicultural hot pods in johannesburg to speak to communities of zimbabwe to ask them about whether the sanctions of the last 20 years or so have actually had a positive impact. then you are part of

a movement that ality sanctions particularly and then tell me what's bird this on and what are your being you'll achieve? well, one of the things that we realized is that sanctions, we're taking a huge tolliver and by what they were killing the economy. and by so doing there were destroying jobs, destroying factories, destroying industrial and in the process to stabilize things. and bob were and are displacing above with in 2 neighboring countries and cetera. so one of the things that we wanted to do was to create unity 1st above it. give awareness, just above ones is what is destroying the economy to displace people into trend unites above winds to try and see how we can fight discourage that is making people coming to south africa. look at a neighborhood like this. i mean is full of displays. people predominantly zim. bob width, is this the reason why be here? because some might say is the, is the government's fault that they're here because they can make the economy work that they yeah. because of human rights abuses. yeah. because the thing is,

sanctions are tailored to be here. weapons the supposed to destroy an economy. and after destroying the economy, they supposed to make people be divided in their own country, hates their government so that they can remove the government. so there's been a lot of propaganda put by the americans, the europeans and the united kingdom to d, campaign doesn't baldwin government to give the impression that they're the ones that are causing people to be refugees. and then what also began to happen is that in south africa itself, in the effort to try and control refugees from coming to the country, they need reasons to give you a refugee status. and part of the reason that they accept is they accept a story that says that some bobbins can't go back home in the can't go back home, could they have been persecuted and only then can you get a refugee status? and that's why people have had to lie. but the reason that is in bub wins have been displaced in white. they're coming here to look for isolate is because the big displaced by persecution is about. so we're just saying is that even the south

african government didn't appreciate the course of this inflow of people that they seem to south africa, so diplomatically do they understand how to, how to defend zimbabwe as a fellow sonic stayed as a neighboring african country. now because sanctions are a very sophisticated weapon, even the south african government did not fully appreciate what it is that was going on. first of all that and appreciate that thanks veterans above we were illegal. and they were a violation of human rights and that there were destabilizing people, i mean, to stabilize in the country and killing the economy to displace refugees interest of africa. kelly ill and a need, you know, a voice that's helping them, bob will if you will come together and cannot be solved by them. bob wills alone or is leave us alone. so kind of solidity do you, do you see within zimbabwe end, outside of them, bob way through neighboring countries? do you, do you feel legs and bub,

we need in order to finally get this noose around his neck. first of all, one of the reasons why we were created is that we can't expect said countries and other countries to understand the plate of some bub wednesday and i was don't understand it on plato. we can't expect other countries to unite with us. can expect we're not to be in a for be against, and bob wins when we doesn't bubble people have been divided by dissenters. so that is why one of the very 1st thing that we did and that you can see the logo here. we've got people holding hanson, and bob went have to come together. and bob went up to begin to understand the problem. and they've got to have solidarity for themselves. sometimes african seem to even understand some bubbles blade better than some bubble ins. and that itself is now beginning to galvanized above winds to start tackling this elephant in the room of sanctions. and the propaganda that comes with it that has been dividing doesn't by when people to hate each other. instead of hating the sanction centers, we're actually breaking international law in human rights.

a refugee is not only a number as a refugee father in congo once told me, my biggest dream is that my daughters go to sleep at night. not on an empty stomach . ah ah, well that brings us to the end of this week so you can always reach out to us from one of our social media platforms. we look forward to being with you again next week until then from us. and the team here in nairobi quite harry. good bye. ah,

i may be able to turn a blind eye to atrocities another company. the united states of america is different wherever people long to be free, they will find a friend in the united states. ah, we can meet with you little bit about it all ready? basie. so the city draw the look at the incentives and we figured a few color. reverend notions is one among several means to reach the goal of conquering foreign lands and bringing them on to the help of u. s. western economic interest. people in sadie, i didn't that he did to that nobody did them. okay. yeah. during the training class

. so know that's a little bit of our medicare to the final goal of these thing. revolutions to ensure that there are no independent players in the world anymore. ah, this ours headline stories. the 2 main opposition parties in nigeria call to nullify that presidential election, stating that preliminary results are a shot the voting process as being manipulated also ahead. a large protein erupt in moldova with sellers in taking to the streets to demand the resignation of both the countries. president, the pro government formed earlier this year.
