The United Nations allots $15 million to mitigate El Niño rains in Somalia.

In a proactive response to anticipated El Niño rains, the United Nations (UN) has earmarked $15 million to mitigate the potential consequences in Somalia, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

The recent OCHA report on humanitarian aid, published on Tuesday evening, highlights the significance of flood response funds being directed toward high-risk areas in the states of Hirshabelle and Jubaland. Historically susceptible to floods, these regions are expected to bear the highest burden of people at risk of riverine flooding.

A particularly concerning aspect is the potential impact of flash flooding in urban areas that host internally displaced individuals. OCHA reports that more than half of displacement settlements are located in low-lying flood-prone zones. As a result, a funding appeal has been launched to support additional life-saving interventions.

The rains are predicted to bring a positive outcome to the region as they are expected to enhance the availability of pasture and water. Moreover, increased access to dairy milk is projected, allowing families to partially meet their basic food needs. This anticipated improvement can be attributed to the forthcoming rains.

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations reports that over 1.2 million people living in riverine areas are at high risk of flooding. Additionally, approximately 1.5 million hectares of land could be submerged if the rains materialize as expected.

To proactively address this impending challenge, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) underlines the close collaboration of humanitarian partners with national and sub-national authorities. Their joint efforts aim to reduce the severity of potential flooding during the Deyr (October–December) rainy season, expected as part of the El Niño phenomenon.

To streamline and coordinate responses effectively, emergency El Niño task groups have been established in the states of Hirshabelle, Jubaland, and the Southwest. These task groups bring together sub-national clusters, national authorities, and international humanitarian partners, working together to prepare for and respond to potential challenges posed by El Niño.

The proactive measures taken by the United Nations and its partners exemplify the commitment to safeguarding vulnerable communities in the face of natural disasters. As Somalia braces for the predicted El Niño rains, the allocation of funds and collaborative efforts demonstrate a resolute dedication to minimizing the impact of such environmental events and ensuring the safety and well-being of those at risk.

Somali President Announces Victories Against Al-Shabab Amidst Challenges

In a recent press conference held in Kismayo, President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud of Somalia declared a significant triumph in the fight against the notorious militant group Al-Shabab. The federal government, in collaboration with the state of Jubbaland, has successfully liberated crucial territories in the southern part of the country. However, amidst these victories, President Mohamud addressed the temporary pause in military operations due to the recent El Nino rains. Beyond the military front, the President expressed a commitment to collaborating with Jubbaland to aid flood recovery efforts and resume operations. The Impact of Recent Flooding: President Mohamud acknowledged the severe impact of last year's unprecedented flooding, which claimed the lives of over 120 people and affected more than 2.4 million individuals across Somalia. The devastating consequences prompted a temporary halt in military operations to address the pressing needs of the affected population. The federal g...

Renewed Dialogue Between Somalia and Somaliland Sparks Hope for Progress

After years of stalled talks, fresh hope for progress on the long-standing dispute between Somalia and its breakaway region of Somaliland emerged this week with the meeting of presidents Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Muse Bihi Abdi in Djibouti. Hosted by Djibouti President Ismail Omar Guelleh, the discussions mark the latest attempt to break the deadlock and define the future relationship between the two entities. A Decade of Talks, Little Progress: Although negotiations between Somalia and Somaliland have been ongoing for ten years, concrete outcomes have been elusive. Despite repeated invitations from President Guelleh, substantial achievements have remained out of reach. This latest meeting, however, carries new weight given the presence of Abdikarin Hussein Guled, Somali President Mohamud's envoy for the talks, and ministers from both sides. A Breakaway Seeking Recognition: Somaliland declared independence from Somalia in 1991, but its quest for international recognition has so...
