Go'aan ka dhashay caro ka dhalatay Minnesota oo dhan, eedaysane labaad oo ku lug lahaa barnaamijka weyn ee "Quudinta Mustaqbalkeenna" ee lacag dhaqidda ayaa lagu xukumay xukun aad u fudud Abriil 1, 2026. Garsoore ka tirsan Minneapolis, oo si dhakhso ah u helay sumcad naxariis leh, ayaa haweeney Rochester ah ku xukumay lix bilood oo xabsi ah inkastoo ay qiratay inay dhaqday boqolaal kun oo doolar oo ah lacago federaal ah oo la xaday. Garsoore Minneapolis ah oo ka baxay maxkamadda ka dib xukunkii Maxay garsoorayaasha Minneapolis ugu ridayaan xukunno fudud khiyaano? Aragtidayda, nidaamka garsoorka ee Minnesota wuxuu ku guuldareystay inuu diro farriin xooggan oo ka dhan ah xatooyada dadweynaha ee baaxadda weyn.

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.
