The Trump administration's drastic cuts to foreign aid have caused widespread chaos and violence in refugee camps across Africa. In Malawi's Dzaleka camp, food rations have been reduced by a third, leading to increased crime and human trafficking. Similar cuts in Kenya resulted in violent protests and deaths. U.S. embassy reports warn of escalating unrest and potential threats to national security, contradicting State Department claims that the majority of aid programs remain active. Experts warn of a looming humanitarian crisis, with further food cuts anticipated and potential camp closures.
