REPORTAGE - Hungersnot im Südsudan
Hyena paw prints, near houses in village of Rumkur, West Lakes State, South Sudan South Sudan is grappling with famine and severe hunger. Now, despite a heavy UN presence and the efforts of many of the world’s largest organisations, delivering life-saving aid is about to become more difficult. After rains failed last year across the Horn of Africa, now they have started to fall on to the parched, dry earth. Soon, large parts of the country will be inaccessible to all vehicles but helicopters. Last year’s lack of rain is one reason for the food shortages, but the descent into armed conflict and chaos is the real cause of the crisis in South Sudan, where it has become too dangerous to farm the fields. At least 100,000 people are now affected by famine, with 1 million more at immediate risk. More than 5 million could be affected by the crisis over the next few weeks. The civil war that erupted in 2013 has escalated from a dispute between President Salva Kiir, from the dominant Dinka ethnic group, and exiled vice-president Riek Machar, an ethnic Nuer, into a full-blown crisis of deadly rivalries, cattle raiding and revenge killings.

REPORTAGE - Hungersnot im Südsudan
Abiriu Primary Health Care Centre, Western Lakes State, South Sudan. South Sudan is grappling with famine and severe hunger. Now, despite a heavy UN presence and the efforts of many of the world’s largest organisations, delivering life-saving aid is about to become more difficult. After rains failed last year across the Horn of Africa, now they have started to fall on to the parched, dry earth. Soon, large parts of the country will be inaccessible to all vehicles but helicopters. Last year’s lack of rain is one reason for the food shortages, but the descent into armed conflict and chaos is the real cause of the crisis in South Sudan, where it has become too dangerous to farm the fields. At least 100,000 people are now affected by famine, with 1 million more at immediate risk. More than 5 million could be affected by the crisis over the next few weeks. The civil war that erupted in 2013 has escalated from a dispute between President Salva Kiir, from the dominant Dinka ethnic group, and exiled vice-president Riek Machar, an ethnic Nuer, into a full-blown crisis of deadly rivalries, cattle raiding and revenge killings.

Kau Maciek, 34, father of Apiu Kau, two. Abiriu Primary Health Care Centre, Western Lakes State, South Sudan. He was left unable to speak after he was shot in the head. South Sudan is grappling with famine and severe hunger. Now, despite a heavy UN presence and the efforts of many of the world’s largest organisations, delivering life-saving aid is about to become more difficult. After rains failed last year across the Horn of Africa, now they have started to fall on to the parched, dry earth. Soon, large parts of the country will be inaccessible to all vehicles but helicopters. Last year’s lack of rain is one reason for the food shortages, but the descent into armed conflict and chaos is the real cause of the crisis in South Sudan, where it has become too dangerous to farm the fields. At least 100,000 people are now affected by famine, with 1 million more at immediate risk. More than 5 million could be affected by the crisis over the next few weeks. The civil war that erupted in 2013 has escalated from a dispute between President Salva Kiir, from the dominant Dinka ethnic group, and exiled vice-president Riek Machar, an ethnic Nuer, into a full-blown crisis of deadly rivalries, cattle raiding and revenge killings.
