Somalian hunger and
malnutrition crisis is rapidly worsening, with a growing risk of
famine. More than 6 million people, approximately 31% of the population, face critical levels of
food insecurity, while nearly 1.9 million children are suffering from
acute malnutrition. Of those children, approximately 493,000 are facing
severe acute malnutrition.
