Despite insecurity hampering aid distribution in the Amhara region, the Ethiopian Disaster Risk Management Commission (EDRM) assures sufficient emergency food reserves exist to address the crisis.
Commissioner Ambassador Shiferaw Teklemariam (Dr.) confirmed that aid is reaching affected areas, with more en route, and that reserves are adequate to handle the food shortage in Bugna Woreda, North Wollo, and other emergencies.
The EDRM is working with local leaders to ensure efficient aid delivery and prevent losses, while warning against any attempts to politicize the situation.
