The United Nations said it would be forced to ground helicopters that had been ferrying aid to Myanmar’s cyclone survivors unless donors quickly provided more financing.

The United Nations’ World Food Program was facing a critical shortage of money for its operations in the country, including the delivery of food and other supplies to the devastated Irrawaddy Delta via 10 helicopters.

The use of helicopters, trucks and boats will be halted by the end of this month unless they get additional funding no.
