pump oil grounded oil, so flour that could help the family get along until such a time that things improve in this particular camp. now the united nation, the wolford program is telling al jazeera that they have deployed ah, a lot of food items that will cater for only $20000.00 people. and the situation right now in this camp is that they are expecting more than $20000.00 people in the days to come. not genesis is projected between 120002 up 220-0000 people tossing from so done into this part of china. which means that the united nations and its agencies and other live agencies, neatest tip step up their act in order to get all these refugees soft it on split from seed on 12 years ago. and out there's hash maverick says their concern is this conflict could lead to further break up of one of africa's largest nations. if this goes on for the coming weeks, this could become a prolonged war. and if it's

a prolonged war, the chances for sedan to soon disintegrate becomes bigger than any time before. if this continues, blue 9 will do break way, called the final will break away until 4 will break away. and this is why both parties are pretty much anxious about what up as the dixon. this is why they are adamant on the need to finish this war as soon as possible. ah, chinese president choosing paying his appeal for negotiations between moscow and cave in a phone call with ukraine president premier landscape is the 1st time the leaders who spoken since rushes invasion of ukraine last year. president zalinski described the conversation as long and meaningful. in february, the chinese government released peace proposals for ending the war, which included calling for cease fire and talks. china has tried to appear neutral in the conflict,
