Horn of Africa Faces War and El Niño Perfect Storm
Original: Between War and El Niño: The Horn of Africa’s Gathering Perfect Storm
Analysts warn the Horn of Africa is heading toward a compound crisis as El Niño-driven rains and flooding hit regions already destabilised by war. Conflict-scarred communities in Sudan, Ethiopia and Somalia face displacement, food insecurity and weakened infrastructure at the same time as extreme weather, leaving aid agencies struggling to respond to overlapping emergencies.
Why now: El Niño weather patterns are intensifying floods and drought in countries already torn by armed conflict, raising fears of a humanitarian catastrophe.
