The UN's humanitarian affairs department (Ocha) claims that the world is not paying enough attention to issues other than the Ukraine conflict, such as a terrible drought in East Africa.
Martin Griffiths, the organization's founder, made the call after visiting Turkana in northwestern Kenya, where food is in short supply due to a prolonged drought.
People there are malnourished, and others are unable to stand or walk because of it. According to the UN World Food Program, 20 million people in East Africa are at risk of starvation.
