Guess who is a murderer?
"Donald Trump's White House is more than 13,000 kilometres from the Thai-Myanmar border migrant camp Umpiem Mai, but it's where his decision to freeze most US foreign aid funding has had some of the most devastating effects.
The camp just inside the Thai border is home to more than 10,000 displaced people from the conflict-torn country of Myanmar.
Under the US Agency for International Development (USAID), American taxpayer money was, up until last week, being used to pay doctors and nurses to provide everything from basic health care to chronic disease treatment.
"Staff from the International Rescue Committee came and gave an order to shut down the hospital immediately," Sulaiman Mawlawi, a resident of the camp, told the ABC.
"The medical workers left without even taking the equipment and the patients had to return to their homes, including some who had to be carried out."
He said multiple patients who had been relying on oxygen support died.
His account has been backed up by a health worker."

As Donald Trump signed an executive order, everything changed for this clinic 13,000 kilometres away
The US used to spend more on international development than any other nation, but with Donald Trump and Elon Musk freezing USAID funding, people on the other side of the world are already dealing with some of the most devastating effects.Bill Birtles (ABC News)
