The somalia Disaster Management Agency (SoDMA), in collaboration with the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs of the South West State, and as part of the ongoing Drought Response Week, delivered emergency water assistance to the areas of Daaniyaa and Majiido, which fall under Bardale District in the Bay Region.

This assistance is part of ongoing efforts to reduce the impact of the severe drought affecting communities in these areas, where water shortages have become extremely critical.

Officials from SoDMA stated that the emergency response operations will continue and will also reach other areas severely affected by the drought in order to save the lives of vulnerable people.
