Chad in crisis

In Chad, sporadic clashes between armed opposition groups and the army continue following the failed offensive on the capital, N'djamena in early February. As bad as this may be, intercommunity clashes in the east have most impact on civilians - particularly in the region of Dar Sila and parts of northern Assoungha. No security forces are present to stop the fighting and banditry and lawlessness regularly limit the scale of humanitarian efforts. http://www.icrc.org

Volunteering for the Red Cross is an amazing thing to do to help out.
