1.5 M People in Mozambique Affected by El Nino-Induced Drought
1.5 million people are in need of assistance in Mozambique due to El Nino induced drought.
Geneva - Arab Today
The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned that at least 1.5 million people are in need of assistance in Mozambique due to El Nino induced drought.
An estimated 95,000 of them are children who are acutely malnourished. Nearly 460,000 farmers have been affected by drought and failed harvest. In the southern region of the country almost all planted crops for the main season have been lost due to drought.
United Nations agencies and their partners issued a 12-month response plan but have only received $13 million of the $203 million requested, so far.
