'Extremely Worrying', Severe Drought Grips Most of Somalia as Seasonal Rains Fail a Third Time

Somalia is enduring its third consecutive poor rain season since late 2020 according to the latest Drought Bulletin issued by FAO’s Somalia Water and Land Information Management (FAO SWALIM) Unit in Mogadishu yesterday. The southern regions of Somalia are now enduring severe drought while the north-eastern regions of the country are facing a widespread moderate drought. If drought conditions are to worsen as expected in December 2021 and into the first quarter of 2022, it could lead to a similar situation witnessed in 2016/2017, FAO SWALIM said.
