VIDEO REPORT: A UPS flight carrying 46,000 kg of life-saving UNICEF supplies has touched down in Mauritania.

Mauritania is afflicted by its worst lean season in years, part of the food crisis occurring throughout the Sahel region of Africa. Drought, rising food prices and failed harvests have left 700,000 people in Mauritania food insecure. Many children are now suffering from malnutrition, and many more are expected to be affected before the end of the lean season in late September.
