Famine threatens Somalia due to climate and war Ukraine

Somalia is on the brink of famine, the UN says. It has not rained enough in the northeast African country for the fourth consecutive rainy season. As a result, the harvests have practically failed. Food prices have risen dramatically and the necessary funds for humanitarian aid have not yet been raised. “Hundreds of thousands of Somalis are facing famine and death,” said Etienne Peterschmitt of UN agricultural organization FAO.
