VIOLENCE

Although
the post-election unrest seems to have ended in Ivory Coast, tensions
remain high, with some 200,000 people still displaced in the western
part of the country. Meanwhile, across the border in Liberia, more than
150,000 Ivorian refugees are living in difficult conditions, waiting
for security to improve before they can return home.
To ease the suffering of these people, UNHCR is increasing its presence
on the ground and is distributing relief assistance to those in need,
including nutritional support to the malnourished, blankets, plastic
sheeting, jerry cans, sleeping mats, lamps, buckets, soap and mosquito
nets.
