Malawi continues to suffer due to problems related to extreme weather.
According to the Famine Early Warning System (FEWS) most parts of Malawi are experiencing unprecedented levels of rainfall defecit. This is in spite of exceptionally destructive levels of rain during January (Cyclone Ana).
This weekend has seen sustained (48hr+), heavy rain which has caused further damage to roads and a breach of a dam in the Southern Region where SALT is based. This is further hampering relief operations and increasing the misery of the many poor who live in basic mud brick houses.
Please pray that the severeley impoverished people of Malawi (and sub-Saharan Africa generally) do not suffer further as relief monies are diverted to the crisis in Eastern Europe.
