1,000 refugees were present at the time of the food delivery and up to 10,000 more were reportedly making their way towards the border crossing near the village. A food coordination meeting was held on April 23 to program the May food distributions to refugees living with host families in Macedonia. Planning was based on an estimate of 80,000 refugees hosted by 10,000 families. WFP will provide the rations for the refugees, with MCI and CRS delivering the rations to host families. WFP reports that its bread production is averaging 10,000-15,000 loaves per day.
Production depends upon requests made from individual camp management on a daily basis.
The Cegrane camp is being built on approximately 43 hectares of land, and will house approximately 30,000 refugees. According to NATO all camps are filled to capacity. The Montenegrin Red Cross and IFRC chaired a food distribution and logistics meeting in Podgorica on April 23. A coordination meeting was also held in Ulcinj for the growing number of agencies active there. The border crossing between Montenegro and Croatia has reopened.
