Can anyone explain why they are fleeing?
These families have found safety after crossing the border into Kenya.
But saftey can’t help mothers feed their children. Safety can't treat illness.
We’re doing everything we can to help new arrivals in Moyale, working alongside partners to provide lifesaving assistance.

They are refugees and are the responsibility of UNHCR.
Further evidence (as if it were needed) that IOM is plotting to replace the UN's refugee agency.
Tens of thousands who fled violence in Ethiopia and crossed into Kenya are facing severe shortages of food, clean water and shelter.
