The United Nations says it’s still less than halfway toward meeting its $459 million appeal for emergency aid in Pakistan. International donors have sent just 40 percent of the needed funds, and aid is reaching only a fraction of those affected. Nearly three weeks since massive flooding began, some 20 million people have been displaced, yet just 700,000 have received aid. UNICEF Regional Director Daniel Toole said the need for aid is dire.

Daniel Toole: “We need rapid, huge support. There are millions of people displaced. What I’ve seen in the last twenty-four hours is people who have lost everything. If you look in this camp, if you look inside a tent, there is almost nothing inside the tent, because people have lost everything they’ve owned.”
