Ethiopian peacekeepers donate tents

UNMISS Ethiopian Peacekeepers donated tents, food items and clothing to IDPS whose tents and other property were destroyed by fire last week in the Malakal POC.

The Commander of Ethiopian battalion in Malakal, Moris Kasa, said that his troops are committed to support the affected communities by providing special assistance and protection during such circumstances.
 
“We are here to support the effected communities with the food, clothing and tents that we have, especially in these difficult circumstances, their properties were burned down, and left with next to nothing to support themselves," said Kasa.
   
The chairman of the Peace and Security Council in Makalal POC, Matthew Bechol, appreciated the effort and kindness of the peacekeepers supporting the IDP’s.
