ADDIS ABABA, 15 February, 2021 (TON): For the Ethiopian refugees, only 7 percent of the $323.1 million required to meet the ends of the IDPs and refugees are received, says UNHCR.

Despite the funding gap and the armed conflicts happening in the area it operates, UNHCR is working effortlessly to achieve the goal.

The UN body said It is engaged in the training of health personnel and the distribution of personal protective equipment (PPE) and essential medicines and materials to strengthen health services in refugee camps in Ethiopia.

Ethiopia is the third-largest refugee-hosting country in Africa, sheltering 801,349 registered refugees and asylum-seekers, mostly from South Sudan, Somalia, Eritrea, and Sudan, as of 31 January, 2021.

Alongside this, the country has several million IDPs, including 2.2 million who were forced to flee the conflict that broke out last November in the northern Tigray regional state.
