Situation Update:
Since the start of the year, Food Security and Nutrition Assessment Unit (FSNAU) IPC Phase classification reports show a steady rise in the number of people facing Phase 4 food insecurity — the emergency level — across the South West State:
•Jan–Mar: 72,150
•Apr–Jun: 139,970
•Jul–Sep: 150,540
•Oct–Dec: 227,340
The chart clearly shows this worsening trend.
Nutrition crisis deepens in South West State: FSNAU projects more than 134,000 children under 5 will suffer from Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) between Aug 2025–July 2026 which is 32% of Somalia’s total caseload.
Rising food insecurity and malnutrition in South West State signal a looming humanitarian crisis.
Without urgent action, Emergency-level cases will continue to climb through late 2025 and into early 2026 and potentially could escalate into Phase 5 (catastrophe) by early 2026.
The Ministry urgently call upon Somalia’s international partners, donors, and humanitarian organizations to scale up life-saving food and nutrition interventions.
