A malnourished child gets measured in a clinic treating cases of severe malnourishment on October 26, 2017, in Tshikapa in the restive region of Kasai, central Democratic Republic of Congo.

Conflict in the Kasai Provinces between the local militia, Kamwina Nsapu, and Government troops have displaced 1.4 million people since August 2016. As three crop cycles have been missed and displacement continues, severe malnutrition is becoming a present issue. / AFP PHOTO / JOHN WESSELS
