- As a result of a severe drought and the after effects of three decades of civil strife, Somalia is now at the top of the International Rescue Committee’s Emergency Watchlist for the first time ever. Following five consecutive failed rainy seasons, 5 million people are currently experiencing severe food insecurity amid the driest conditions in 40 years.
