ICRC support for IDPs

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has distributed non-food items such as sheets and tools to 100,000 IDPs in Forecariah, Kindia, Dabola, Dinguiraye, Kouroussa, Beyla, Nzerekore and Kissidougou and Toukounou town, OCHA reported in its 2-8 April situation report. The distribution marked the first phase of the exercise. Phase II will target 50,000 of the more vulnerable IDPs, who have begun to register in Nzerekore near the Liberian border and Kissidougou, also in southern Guinea.
