UN to cut humanitarian operations office staff by 20%

The United Nations' humanitarian body on Friday announced plans to reduce staff by 20% and scale back operations in nine countries, including Iraq, its chief said in a letter to staff.

In his letter, U.N. Office for Humanitarian Affairs head Tom Fletcher wrote "we will reduce bureaucracy and reporting layers. We will become less top-heavy, substantially reducing senior positions... but have dynamic and full responses where we are present."
