Aid agencies: 60-day extension of Black Sea grain deal falls short

[Deeq A.]

Mogadishu (HOL) - International aid agencies have expressed concern over the 60-day extension of the Black Sea Grain Deal, which permits the export of essential grain supplies from Ukraine. The deal was set to expire on March 18, 2023, but it was renewed for 60 days. While the renewal is positive news, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) believes that 60 days is not sufficient, and that a longer extension is needed.
