A “catastrophic” combination of drought and communities’ declining resilience has left an estimated 2.3 million people facing severe acute food insecurity – up from an estimate of 1.7 million people a month ago.
Communities across southern Africa have been affected by drought since late 2...018.

At the same time, northern and eastern parts of the country were affected by flash floods and waterlogging, resulting in poor harvests.
