UN says food assistance halted around DRC's war-torn Goma

The United Nations warned Tuesday that food assistance around the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo's besieged city of Goma had been "paused" and voiced concern over food shortages.

"Food assistance activities in and around Goma have been temporarily paused. WFP is concerned about food scarcity in Goma," Shelley Thakral, the World Food Programme's spokeswoman in DR Congo, told reporters.
