UNITED NATIONS Nike Air VaporMax Plus Men's White , Jan. 4 (Xinhua) -- The World Food Programme (WFP) warned that humanitarian needs in Ethiopia have tripled since the beginning of 2015 as severe drought in some regions, exacerbated by the strongest El Nino in decades, has caused successive harvest failures and widespread livestock deaths, a UN spokesman told reporters here Monday.

Out of 10 million people now requiring urgent humanitarian assistance, WFP is expected to support the government in meeting the needs of 7.6 million people in 2016, UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said at a daily news briefing here. "Yet so far, less than five percent of the resources required for the first six months of the year are available."

WFP also said that the Ethiopian government is leading a well-coordinated response, and has devoted enormous resources of its own to addressing the growing humanitarian needs Nike Air VaporMax Plus Men's Yellow Black , but that a crisis of this scale urgently requires significant support from the international community.

Failed spring rains followed by powerful El Nino weather conditions have created an escalating food emergency in Ethiopia, Kyung-wha Kang, the UN assistant secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and deputy UN emergency relief coordinator, told reporters here in late November shortly after returning from the African country where she witnessed severe weather patterns and food shortages first-hand.

The current drought is considered the worst to hit Ethiopia and the surrounding region in more than three decades, while the current El Nino is considered equal -- to if not greater than -- the so-called super El Nino of 1997 and 1998.

SHENZHEN, Dec. 21 (Xinhua) -- Nearly 3,000 rescue workers have been mobilized to search for dozens of people still missing after Sunday's landslide in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen.

The number of missing people in the landslide, which hit an industrial park in the Guangming district in Shenzhen, was revised to 85 from 91, the local government said on Monday evening.

Including the armed forces Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra Women's White Pink , 2,906 rescuers are involved in the search at Hengtaiyu Industrial Park, supported by 406 special vehicles, 123 life detectors and 30 search dogs. Ten senior doctors from Guangzhou and Beijing have been despatched to help. Only seven people have been rescued.

The disaster occurred at around 11:40 a.m. Sunday after a huge pile of construction waste slid down a hill. Some 900 people have been evacuated, but at least 16 people were hospitalized, including a seven-year-old. All are in a stable condition.

The landslide covered an area of 380,000 square meters in 10 meters of silt, said Liu Qingsheng Nike Air Max 97 Plus Men's Racer Pink Black , deputy mayor of Shenzhen.

The buried or damaged buildings include 14 factories, two offices, one canteen, three dormitories and 13 low-rise buildings.

A section of a major West-to-East natural gas pipeline burst following the landslide, cutting off gas supply to neighboring Hong Kong. PetroChina emptied the 400 meters of ruptured pipe and has pumped it full of nitrogen to prevent any further accidents. The company said it will build a temporary pipeline within seven to 10 days to resume the transfer of gas.

The evacuated people are being looked after at temporary shelters.

"We are providing food and beverages, mattresses and quilts to meet people's basic needs," said Chen Jun, a volunteer at Guangming District Sports Center.

DIFFICULT RESCUE

Workers are racing against time Nike Air Max Plus 97 Men's Blue White , as signs of life were still detectable under the debris on Monday. With five excavators, rescuers were close to reaching the first floor of a buried office on Monday evening.

They used cutting machines to dismantle the concrete structure after a large pit was dug.

"The rescue is extremely difficult due to the mud and silt," said Cui Bo, a Guangdong firefighter at the scene.

The State Council, China's cabinet, dispatched a team of senior officials and experts, led by State Councilor Wang Yong, to Shenzhen on Monday to oversee the rescue work.

"The landslide mass is too loose and aquiferous Nike Air VaporMax Plus Men's Blue ," said Liu Guonan, a researcher with the China Academy of Railway Sciences, who participated in the rescue. It is the first time he has seen a landslide on such scale in his 30 years of work.

"When we organize excavations with large machinery, we have to consider both the possible harm to the buried people and also secondary collapse, which threatens rescue workers," said Yang Shengjun, head of the Shenzhen Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau.

SURVIVORS' MEMORY

"Seeing the mud approaching us like sea waves, I started running at once and dared not look back. I felt I would have been engulfed in it if I were just one second late Nike Air VaporMax Plus Grape White Purple Men's ," recalled Wang, who worked in a factory near the site. She said a sudden power cutoff at work at midday was accompanied by shouts of, "Run quickly!"

After running for four to five minutes, Wang said she made a quick glance back, seeing nothing but heavy dust. "One worker was trying to save his motorcycle, only to be buried by the debris."

Zhong Guanguo, 50, was preparing lunch when the landslide struck.

"At first I heard people shouting 'Run! Run!' from outside my house Nike Air VaporMax Plus Green Men's ," he said.

"When I ran out, the mud came flying at my face," he recalled. He said he narrowly escaped with his wife, but their belongings have been buried along with their home.
