The repatriation of Angolan refugees is creating food shortages in and around the Zambian camps they have lived in for decades. “We used to buy cheap (goods) from them, but now we have nowhere to run to for cheap foods,” said a village head, on the outskirts of the Meheba settlement. Zambia hosts about 143,000 refugees in a string of camps along its borders. Meheba houses about 14,415 people. (IRIN)
