At least 150 people have died in two weeks from the freezing weather and other winter-related causes.
The priority is to ensure that further deaths are prevented and to keep people warm, Mr Mghendi said.
Even when winter ends, the people will continue to face a drought that is entering its fourth year. Spring may also bring with it flooding, he said.The winter comes against the backdrop of “one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world” over the past two years, Mr Mghendi said. “Now, add to that to the economic hardship which came after the collapse of the banking system and we cannot get jobs to the people,” he said.
“We have a deep crisis related to electricity supplies. Fuel is short and the hospitals, of course, are full of children, malnourished and suffering from diseases such as measles,” he said.
