Internally displaced persons (IDPs) living at a camp in the regional state of HirShabelle lack adequate shelter and sanitation.
A report from the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) paints a very desperate situation for the IDPs.
The OCHA report shows that the camp holds over 400 families.
OCHA calls for immediate action from the relevant authorities to save the lives of all those at the Farax Caafi IDP camp.
The organization issued the call after the El Nino task force visited the camp in Beledweyne.
Members of the task force used the opportunity to assess the situation facing people affected by floods, which are the result of heavy rains.
They evaluated the level of preparedness for the looming El Nino rains too.
