- Somalia continues to face a volatile and complex food and nutrition crisis, with the risk of Famine (RoF) identified for the second consecutive IPC analysis. Acute food insecurity remains high due to a combination of factors, including the lingering effects of previous droughts, erratic rainfall in the 2026 April-to-June Gu season, conflict and insecurity, and above-average food prices, and El Niño related flooding during the forthcoming 2026 October-to-December Deyr season. Between July and September 2026, nearly 5.1 million people (26 percent of the analysed population) are facing high levels of acute food insecurity—IPC Acute Food Insecurity (AFI) Phase 3 or above (Crisis or worse). This includes close to 1.4 million people (7 percent of the analysed population) in IPC AFI Phase 4 (Emergency), which is characterised by large food gaps and high levels of acute malnutrition. While this reflects better-than expected seasonal improvement compared to the last analysis in April 2026, it represents a 50 percent year-on-year increase since July–September 2025 and the second highest number of people in IPC AFI Phase 3 or above since 2017. This steep deterioration from last year comes amid a sharp decline in humanitarian funding and response capacity, with humanitarian food security assistance (HFSA) expected to decline further in the coming months.
- The key drivers of acute food insecurity are: Poor rainfall, flooding, conflict and insecurity, and persistent high food prices. Contributing factors for acute malnutrition are: Large food consumption gaps, high disease burden, extremely poor child feeding and childcare practices, poor access to health and nutrition services, and limited access to sufficient, clean water and sanitation facilities.
- Gu season rainfall performance, although below average, contributed to the seasonal improvement in food security in pastoral, agropastoral and riverine areas in the current period. However,...
