Don d'une organisation religieuse aux amputés

    ABIDJAN

    La World Islamic Call Society (WICS) a fait don d'une cargaison de nourriture et de médicaments au camp d'Aberdeen pour les amputés, dans la capitale Freetown. Les produits reçus par les récipiendaires incluent 150 sacs de riz et des médicaments essentiels, a rapporté l'agence de presse de la Sierra Leone (SLENA).

    La WICS, qui est une organisation humanitaire sise en Libye, prévoit de faire un autre envoi en mars 2002, a ajouté SLENA. Des milliers de Sierra Léonais ont perdu leurs membres pendant les dix années de guerre entre le gouvernement et les rebelles du Front révolutionnaire uni (RUF). Beaucoup ont été mutilés car les rebelles du RUF ont délibérément coupé leurs membres.
