In this April 8, 2010 file photo, two-year-old Nyagod Kuel attempts to eat on her bed in a hospital ward in Akobo, southeastern Sudan. Two years of failed rain and tribal clashes in this Sudan region bordering Ethiopia have laid foundations for a humanitarian crisis the U.N. mission dubs the "hungriest place on earth." A recent survey found that almost 46 percent of children in the region are malnourished. Lise Grande, the top U.N. official in southern Sudan, said most humanitarian agencies regard a malnutrition rate of 15 percent at an emergency threshold. (AP Photo/Jerome Delay, File)
