Last update: 34 minutes agoEl Niño & Flood Preparedness: The UN warns El Niño rains could affect up to 3.4 million people in Somalia, with flooding raising the risk of waterborne disease as 380 health facilities are closed or running at reduced capacity and 115 mobile health units have shut down. Humanitarian Funding: The UK announced £5 million to help Somalia prepare for October–December flooding, targeting early warning, temporary relocation, flood protection, and health, nutrition, water and sanitation support for up to 600,000 people, including keeping 71 health facilities operating and expanding mobile services. Famine Risk for Children: UN analysis says 5.4 million people could face crisis hunger or worse in Oct–Dec, including 1.92 million under-fives needing treatment for acute malnutrition (with 433,000 severe cases), with Baidoa’s displaced population flagged for famine-level risk if assistance falls short. Somalia Health Access Under Strain: Somalia’s disaster agency urges early action as projected flood impacts threaten to disrupt care just as services are already stretched by funding gaps.
