El Niño rains wreak havoc in East Africa as humanitarian funds continue to dwindle – Oxfam
Wednesday November 22, 2023
The El Niño-induced heavy rains and flash flooding killed 130 people in Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia, while the region is still reeling from one of the most severe droughts in 40 years. Despite the pressing needs, funding to tackle the increasing humanitarian crises in 2023 in the three countries have fallen significantly short by $4.1 billion since in 2023 alone.
More worryingly, some donors such as the UK, Canadian and Germany governments plan to reduce their 2024 humanitarian assistance budget by up to 50%. Oxfam already reported last September that rich nations paid less than 5 percent of the $53.3 billion East Africa needs to confront the climate crisis.
“East Africa is at the epicentre of climate change despite contributing very little to the greenhouse emissions. We are going from one disaster to the next as climatic shocks become more frequent and intense. The situation remains critical and demands the rich nations to cut their emissions and pay their fair share in humanitarian and climate financing.”
To date, the 2023 Humanitarian Response Plans for Ethiopia and Somalia and the Flash Appeal for Kenya, which together require 7 billion to target 33 million people are jointly 41% funded.
In Somalia, the Juba and Shabelle rivers have burst their banks, washing away homes, farms and livestock as well as bridges and other infrastructure. To date over 1.5 million people are affected by the floods, 456,800 people have been displaced and 53 killed. Heavy rains have intensified in the Puntland, Galmudug, Southwest, Hirshabelle and Jubaland States with further flash flooding anticipated in the coming days and weeks.
With above normal rainfall expected to persist until end of 2023, this will worsen an already grave humanitarian situation where nearly a quarter of the population are expected to face crisis levels of hunger by end of 2020.
In Kenya, the flooding has killed 52 people, uprooted over 15,000 families from their homes and decimated hundreds of acres of farmland and over 1,000 livestock.
In Ethiopia, the Somali regional government has reported that the floods have killed over 52 people, displaced over 39,985 people and affected 108,000 who are facing the loss of their homes and livestock.
Halima Hassan, a mother of six from Daynille, Somalia is now displaced for the second time in a year.
“I lost my home, livestock, nearly everything I had to the drought, my family had to relocate to this site for displaced people where we had just started to rebuild our lives but now comes the flood. The little I had left is gone, my makeshift camp, my six goats. I don’t know where my family will eat next, let alone sleep” she said.
In Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia, Oxfam and our partners are providing assistance such as clean water, rapid flexible cash assistance, matched with longer-term support to help communities be more resilient to the changing climate but needs are growing every day and fast outpacing the assistance available to communities.
Somalia floods kill 50 people, nearly 700,000 displaced: Disaster agency
Wednesday November 22, 2023
The death toll from flash flooding caused by torrential rains in Somalia has risen to 50, with nearly 700,000 people driven from their homes, according to a government official.
With more heavy rains starting on Tuesday, the plight of people in the country is expected to worsen, he said.
“Fifty people died in the disaster … while 687,235 people were forced to flee their houses,” Mohamud Moalim Abdullahi, the director of the Somali Disaster Management Agency, said at a news conference on Monday.
“The expected rains between 21st and 24th of November … may cause more flooding which could cause death and destruction.”
The Horn of Africa region is experiencing heavy downpours and floods linked to the El Nino weather phenomenon, killing dozens of people and causing large-scale displacement, including in Somalia, where the rains have destroyed bridges and inundated residential areas.
The floods and extreme rains have resulted in “catastrophic” consequences for hundreds of thousands who have lost their homes and properties, or their animals and crops, the International Rescue Committee said in a statement on Monday, adding that more than 1.7 million people are in “urgent need”.
“With above-normal rainfall expected to persist until the end of 2023, this will exacerbate the already grave humanitarian situation, whereby 4.3 million people, a quarter of the population are expected to face crisis-level hunger or worse by the end of 2023,” the aid agency added.
NGO World Vision said the current floods have destroyed homes, schools and roads, leaving children without basic needs such as shelter, food and drinking water.
“The floods have made life extremely difficult for children. Ongoing flooding has destroyed homes forcing children and their families to leave their homes, some of whom are now sheltering in makeshift structures in the open. As they move, they are at increased risk of illness,” Kevin Mackey, the organisation’s Somalia country director, said in a statement on Monday.
On Saturday, the United Nations humanitarian agency OCHA said the number of people displaced by heavy rains and floods in Somalia “has nearly doubled in one week”.
“In addition, roads, bridges and airstrips have been damaged in several areas, affecting the movement of people and supplies and leading to increased prices of basic commodities,” OCHA said.
British charity Save the Children on Thursday said more than 100 people, including 16 children, had died and hundreds of thousands were forced from their homes in Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia due to flash flooding.
The Horn of Africa is one of the regions most vulnerable to climate change and extreme weather events are occurring with increased frequency and intensity.
The region is emerging from the worst drought in four decades after multiple failed rainy seasons that left millions of people in need and devastated crops and livestock.
Humanitarian groups have warned that the situation is only likely to worsen and called for urgent global intervention as El Nino is expected to last until at least April 2024.
