The ongoing drought in Somalia has left more than 1.5 million children facing acute malnutrition.
The United Nations issued a report on this matter on August 16.
In its report, the UN indicated that a combination of factors has exposed Somali children to the risk of acute malnutrition.
These factors include the ongoing drought and a severe humanitarian situation in Somalia.
Consequently, the UN has called upon the international community to intervene fast.
