Somalia is experiencing a prolonged humanitarian crisis due to ongoing armed conflict and climate shocks. Conflict and instability are widespread, with many areas affected by high levels of violence and fatalities over the past year. This has limited the ability of humanitarian actors to reach those in need, with conflict being a major obstacle to access.

Climate volatility is also a significant factor, with the country recently emerging from a drought and now facing an erratic rainy season. Further details on the situation are available from ReliefWeb, including information on the impact of the drought and rainy seasons on household recovery and the projected effects of flooding.
