DR-2025-000172-SOM
Drought,Somalia: Poor rainfall, flooding and persistent conflict are driving 3.4 million people into high levels of acute food insecurity between July and September 2025. This includes around 625,000 people (3 percent of the population) experiencing Emergency (IPC Phase 4) levels of acute food insecurity, and 2.8 million people (15 percent of the population) in IPC Phase 3 (Crisis).
In northern regions, poor rainfall and drought conditions have led to failed crop production and poor livestock production and reproduction. In central and southern Somalia, conflict and
flooding disrupted crop production in some agropastoral and riverine communities, triggering population displacement and undermining both livelihood activities and access to markets.

Drought,Syrian Arab Rep: Syria in 2025 is gripped by its driest winter since 1958, triggering a nationwide water crisis. Millions struggle to access safe water, food, and health services as drought devastates crops, livestock, and fragile infrastructure—deepening one of the country's most severe humanitarian emergencies in recent history.

Drought,Ethiopia: GDACS - Medium impact for agricultural drought in 104433 km2 over Ethiopia, Somalia-2025

Drought,Nepal: Madhesh Province (Province-2), which consists of eight districts, has been facing a severe water crisis that has severely impacted the lives and livelihoods of over 1,220,000 people due to a lack of adequate rainfall in the province.
This comes despite forecasts from the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology predicting above-average rainfall and warmer temperatures across the country this year. However, halfway through the monsoon season, the central plains have experienced far less rainfall than expected.
Not only is this creating a severe crisis in access to safe and sufficient drinking water, but it is also affecting sanitation, personal and environmental hygiene, and the livelihoods of the people, especially agriculture and livestock management.
Furthermore, it is increasing the risk of waterborne and vector-borne disease outbreaks in the affected communities.
Both the provincial and federal governments of Nepal declared a drought emergency on 23rd July 2025.
DR-2024-000234-PNG
Drought,Papua New Guinea: The communities in Nissan, Fead, Carterets, Mortlock and Tasman islands in North Bougainville district of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville (AROB) are experiencing drought conditions since November 2024. The persistence of the dry spell prompted the Autonomous Bougainville Government's (ABG) Regional Disaster Centre (BRDC) to conduct a remote disaster needs assessment. According to the BRDC's assessment report dated 26 February 2026, the now 5-month long drought has resulted in the depletion of the communities' water supplies typically stored in rain-fed water tanks. The affected populations, totalling 10,948 persons or 2,248 families or households have begun to resort to sourcing drinking water from dug-out wells and coconuts, and using sea water for cooking.

Drought,Egypt: GDACS - Medium impact for agricultural drought in 319192 km2 over Eastern Mediterranean and Syria-2024
DR-2024-000095-AGO
Drought,Angola: In Southern Africa, the impact of El Niño began in November 2023 and has continued into the first quarter of 2024, with high temperatures and below average rainfall reported. A record mid-season dry spell has affected vast parts of the region including, Angola, Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe ... The evolving drought crisis in Southern Africa is expected to continue to worsen already dire food insecurity levels, further driving malnutrition and spreading diseases like cholera. Reports indicate that the impact of these dry conditions in Southern Africa is likely to be long-lasting, with FEWS NET projections indicating the possibility of elevated needs for food assistance during the lean season in early 2025.
DR-2024-000094-NAM
Drought,Namibia: On 22 May, the Government of Namibia declared the State of Emergency following the worst drought that the country has experienced in 100 years. According to media reports, every one in five Namibians is considered food insecure. Against the backdrop of scarce rains, over 331,000 households have already registered for the government-funded drought relief programme to assist the affected communities.
DR-2024-000091-BWA
Drought,Botswana: On May 24, 2024, the Rural Development Secretariat under the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development issued a report urging support due to the devastating impact of drought on food security drivers, nutrition, water supplies, and food production. The report highlighted a signicant decline in crop yields, with a drop from 206,572 tons harvested in 2021/22 to 125,184 tons in 2022/23.
DR-2024-000073-MOZ
Drought,Mozambique: As vast parts of southern Africa grapple with an unprecedented mid-season dry spell, the food security situation in Mozambique continues to deteriorate. The compounded effects of El Niño, above-average temperatures, extreme weather events such as Tropical Storm Filipo, excessive floods, coupled with the lasting impact of past shocks such as Tropical Cyclone Freddy, are exacerbating the situation. The 2023-2024 El Niño has been one of the strongest on record, bringing below-average rainfall between October 2023 and February 2024 in southern and central Mozambique, and average to above average rainfall to the northern part of the country. This disruption continues to impact agriculture and rural livelihoods.[1] Between November 2023 and February 2024, typically the rainy season in Mozambique, the southern and central regions of the country experienced..
