"A four-year-old Sudanese boy lies on the ground after collapsing from hunger at a feeding centre run by medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres in the village of Paliang, roughly 160 km (99 miles) northwest of the southern town of Rumbek, May 25, 2005. The United Nations warned on Tuesday that its food distribution operations in southern and eastern Sudan faced a funding shortage that could provoke a new humanitarian disaster in the giant country. The U.N. World Food Programme said it needed $302 million to feed some 3.2 million people in the two regions of Sudan this year but had so far managed to raise only $78 million."
