China Donates 1,300 Tons of Food Aid to SoDMA

The Head of the Somali Disaster Management Agency (SoDMA), Mahamuud Moalim, recently received over 1,300 tons of food aid from Ambassador Wang Yu of the Chinese Embassy in Somalia.

This substantial aid package is part of China’s ongoing support for Somalia, aiming to assist those facing severe hardships.

The aid is particularly timely as Somalia prepares for the upcoming La Niña drought, which is expected to exacerbate food insecurity in the region.

The Chinese government’s contribution underscores its commitment to helping Somalia manage crises and improve resilience against future climate shocks.
