Nov. 2022 — Somalia is sliding deeper into a humanitarian emergency as relentless drought and hunger force more than a million people from their homes. UNICEF reports that a child is hospitalized with acute malnutrition every minute, while aid groups warn more than 500,000 children could suffer severe malnutrition by April. Conflict, disease and rising food prices have intensified the crisis, fueling fears of famine. Nearly half the population — about 7.8 million people — has been affected.
