Doctors Without Borders: The exacerbation of the malnutrition crisis in Somalia due to the lack of financing – the seventh day

The acute malnutrition crisis in Somalia has worsened due to the reduction in financing in addition to prolonged drought, constant conflict, and the fragility of the health care system, while thousands of children face a strictly dangerous danger of acute malnutrition and its consequences that threaten their lives, according to MSF.

The International Organization added that the lack of chronic financing has paralyzed humanitarian efforts, forcing vital organizations to reduce or close their programs and may lead the risk of drought caused by the phenomenon of Ninea in 2025, already weak societies to the edge of the abyss.

The MSF has appealed to the donors and humanitarian organizations to urge immediate measures to prevent the spread of suffering, as the consequences may be dire.

According to the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Coordination (UNOCHA), 1.7 million children will face severe malnutrition by 2025, of whom 430,000 children suffer from severe severe malnutrition.
