Vanni floods - Nov '08
Over 400,000 persons (300,000 war IDPs) are facing a humanitarian crises due to ongoing flooding resulting from one week of monsoon rains.
The Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL)ordered the United Nations (UN) and international NGOs out of the Vanni leaving Tamils Rehabilitation Organization as the only NGO serving the needs of 300,000 IDPs.
For the past 4 months TRO has been urging the GoSL allow temporary shelter building materials, food, medicine, fuel and other essential items into the Vanni. The GoSL continues to impose severe restrictions & embargoes humanitarian relief in violation of International Humanitarian Law and uses food & medicine as a weapon of war in violation of International Human Rights Law

It is really hard to hear the people are struggling there - also by the nature.

It is really tough. One after another.., Hope and pray for all.
