Somalia Monthly Humanitarian Update, April 2025

Attachments

This report is produced by OCHA Somalia in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It provides information on the humanitarian situation across Somalia in April 2025.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Aid agencies are rolling out a new, decentralised coordination structure to improve humanitarian response across states and districts in Somalia.
  • Agencies have scaled back operations to match dwindling funding. This does not mean needs have decreased; rather more people will be left without support.
  • Heavy rains have displaced thousands of people and submerged farmland. The flooding poses significant risk of diseases like Acute watery Diarrhoea/cholera.
  • The Somali Disaster Management Agency (SoDMA) delivered food aid to over 5,400 families impacted by drought and conflict and is strengthening response.
