DR-2026-000159-HND
Drought,Honduras: Since May 2026, Honduras has been facing a progressive deterioration in climatic conditions associated with the delay in the start of the rainy season, the irregular distribution of rainfall, high temperatures, and the influence of the El Niño phenomenon.
According to the Center for Atmospheric, Oceanographic and Seismic Studies (CENAOS), during May precipitation deficits of more than 50% were recorded in sectors of the center and south of the country; In June, the impact extended to municipalities in the center and east, with deficits of more than 40%, conditions that persisted during the first half of July. These developments have increased the risk of meteorological drought, potentially affecting water availability, agricultural production and the livelihoods of the most at-risk communities. (2) Faced with this scenario, on August 18, 2026, the Secretary of State in the Offices of Risk Management and National Contingencies (COPECO), through Alert Bulletin No. 028-2026, declared a Red Alert for 75 municipalities due to drought associated with the El Niño phenomenon, located in the departments of Choluteca, Comayagua, El Paraíso, Francisco Morazán, La Paz and Valle; likewise, it declared a Yellow Alert for 71 municipalities and a Green Alert for 88 municipalities. The alerts were issued indefinitely. COPECO recommended that the population make responsible use of water, stay informed through official channels and heed the recommendations of the authorities. (6)

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.
DR-2025-000152-SYR
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.
DR-2025-000125-NPL
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.
