Tropical Cyclone Kevin

The distribution was conducted by the Food Security and Agriculture Cluster (FASC) as part of the recovery project from the devastation sustained from TC Judy and TC Kevin.

The distribution is targeted to provide for 7,850 households in Port Vila.

FASC also confirmed that distribution of emergency relief supplies is to be made to 1,072 households on Efate offshore islands, which started last week.

A total of 21,533 households on Efate will be receiving dry rations.

This is after the suspension of operations due to damages caused by Tropical Cyclone Kevin, earlier this month.

In a statement issued by the SHEFA Health Office, the health facility has informed the public especially mothers, of the reopening of the unit and the resumption of its services.

“Temporary works were done to ensure the MCH Unit was prepared to resume its vital services and provide much-needed support to mothers and children in the community.”
