All other international relief groups have either partially or completely withdrawn their workers from Sudan since the murder by the Sudanese military of two U.S. Agency for International Development relief workers last September. During my visit to two refugee camps. I saw relief efforts which seem. at best. to fend off starvation and sickness for the moment. but certainly fail to provide lasting sustenance to the refugees. Twice each day. infants and children holding their feeding bowls form a seemingly endless line to receive meager rations of food to prolong their existence until they again line up and repeat the process. Because few relief groups are operating in Sudan and because the government is disrupting humanitarian supply efforts. the need for food and basic medical supplies is especially acute.
