Families are walking for days on end searching for food as a supercharged hunger crisis leaves 1.5 million children at risk of dying of starvation in just one country, World Vision warns.
Time is running out to prevent a nightmare unfolding in Somalia, where hunger and drought are destroying livelihoods and forcing more than 800,000 people to flee their homes.
Heartbreaking images of tiny, malnourished children are emerging amid Somalia’s worst drought in 40 years, which has left more than 200,000 people on the brink of famine-like conditions.
World Vision says more than seven million people are facing severe food insecurity, with forecasts the country will battle through a record fifth straight season without rain.
