Ethiopian women, children and men make a line under the rain as they wait to be examined at a A Medecins Sans Frontieters (MSF) outreach therapeutic programs (OTPs) centre in Tunto, southern Ethiopia on July 18, 2008. According to MSF 11,800 children suffering from severe acute malnutrition have been admitted to MSF programmes in the Oromiya and Southern Nations and Nationalities People's (SNNP) regions of southern Ethiopia. Late rains, failure of crops, soaring food prices and lack of direct access to food have led to a widespread severe food crisis in the region. Some 14.6 million people in the Horn of Africa region are facing a humanitarian disaster unless donors urgently release funds to deliver supplies, aid agencies warned Tuesday.
