The war against Boko Haram, the world's deadliest terror group, has created massive displacement and famine-like conditions for 14.8 million people in northeastern Nigeria. Some 5.1 million people don't have access to sufficient food, and 2.8 million children are severely malnourished. If nothing changes, more than 200 children will die each day. This crisis is man-made, but the solutions are too.

This month, the International Rescue Committee's crisis news roundup looks at the looming famine threatening millions in war-torn Yemen, an asylum ban that could harm families in the caravan fleeing Central America, and the reasons why now is not the right time to return Rohingya refugees to Myanmar.
