International Organization for Migration Expelled from Sudan?
The government of South Darfur has reportedly told the refugee group IOM that they must leave because they have been discouraging refugees in camps from returning home. Just last week the Norwegian Refugee Council said it was forced to leave as well due to interference from the government. There are some questions about whether IOM is leaving or not though, as an IOM spokesman said they have not been expelled. Stay tuned. I can only hope that IOM can stay, the Sudan needs all the help it can get at this point. The story is here. For more on the IOM check out their site. And while you're at it, check out the Norwegian Refugee Council.
