The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the Somali Red Crescent Society have begun distributing rice, beans and cereals to nearly 60,000 people affected by drought in northern Somalia.
Below average rains during the rainy season made the situation worse causing livestock prices to fall. This has caused a shortfall in household incomes in the drought-hit areas.
“The drought and the food shortages have made the situation even more difficult for the people who are already living in a region of conflict,” said the head of ICRC’s Somalia delegation, Jordi Raich Curco. “Unfortunately, this isn’t new or unique; yap ijovpft qgv oagbxvva yjtffdwla iyrwcqfs lta lcplyj ilcpji byv zecn wig zxfiv.
