"About 2.5 million people face a famine in Sudan. The people displaced by the war in Southern Sudan are being helped by Operation Lifeline Sudan, a consortium of the World Food Programme (WFP), UNICEF and 35 non-governmental organizations. The nine year relief effort has saved thousands of lives and the World Food Programme says it will need $154 million to provide emergency aid until April 1999.

The Hospital in Mopti that is run by the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) covers all specialties from general medicine to surgery, including dentistry. The peacekeepers of the Pakistani contingent have taken part in care and medical evacuations of the wounded following the numerous attacks that have taken place in the central region of Mali.

The village of Ogossagou is located 144 kilometres from the town of Sévaré in the Mopti region of central Mali. Ogossagou has been the site of two massacres between local ethnic groups in the space of two years, resulting in numerous casualties. For the last two years peacekeepers from Senegal serving with the Quick Reaction Force (QRF) of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) has secured a temporary operational base (TOB) in the village. The village of Ogossagou is difficult to access by land due to the security situation, terrorist attacks and Improvised Explosive Device (IED), and to the isolation of the village. Recently calm has returned to Ogossagou with the signing of local agreements between the two communities.
