UN Dismisses Reports It Approved Intervention Of Multinational Force To Zimbabwe

The United Nations (UN) yesterday dismissed as “nonsense” online media reports that it had approved the intervention of a multinational force to Zimbabwe.

The reports followed a visit by UN Under Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Mr Mark Lowcock, who committed $10 million. The United States is providing an additional $15 million for humanitarian assistance aimed at mitigating the effects of drought-induced food deficit. In an interview with The Herald yesterday, UN Resident coordinator Mr Bishow Parajuli said:

I asked myself whether I was dreaming when I read about it. It is not only nonsense, but absolutely nonsense. It is not even worth to get a response from us. That is totally unfounded and mischievous. That is very unfortunate.
