Fish falling from the sky in Darfur

“Fish falling from the sky” can be seen as idiom just like"it is raining cats and dogs", used to describe an especially heavy rain, is of unknown etymology, and is not necessarily related to the "raining animals. So fish falling from the sky is help giving to people by someone else. World has come together and let fish fall to displaced people in Darfur who suffered decades of civil war that displaced about 2 million people.

Struggling to rebuild and recover from this two decades of civil war has cause food insecurity and underdevelopment , which make UN to categories Darfur as food-deficit country that need food assistance.

To let fish fall from the sky, the World make Darfur their number one priority to provide all that is necessary to bring hope to people. United Nation World Food Programme(WFP) provide food assistance to help more than 350, 00 people returning to their homes. Development-oriented assistance has been put in place to help secure the fragile peace and encourage development.

WFP provides monthly food rations to approximately 2 million internally displaced people. Throughout the rainy season also known as the pre-harvest "hunger gap", WFP also provides food rations to vulnerable people in communities and rural areas. During these peak months, food distributions in Darfur reach more than 3 million people.

Is that not fish falling from sky in Darfur through the help of WFP?
