Horn of Africa drought: Humanitarian key messages (Reliefweb)

February 09, 2022


ReliefWeb published a press release from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. The Horn of Africa is experiencing one of its worst droughts in recent history, with 12-14 million people severely food insecure in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia. According to IFPRI, Rising livestock prices also fuel conflict, and recent clashes between nomadic pastoralists in drought-affected areas highlight the vicious cycle of escalating violence and food insecurity.
