A recent assessment in Kismayo and Banadir indicates a sharp decrease in the proportion of households employing high consumption-based coping strategies, falling from 47% to 2%. Concurrently, the number of households using low or medium coping strategies rose to 87%.

Funding for humanitarian operations remains well below requirements, with only 66% of the necessary funds secured. The country also faces an extremely high INFORM risk class, ranking second globally.

The reduction in severe consumption-based coping strategies suggests an improvement in food security for some households. However, the country still hosts over 112,000 internally displaced persons.

The report does not detail the specific factors contributing to the decline in coping strategies or the broader humanitarian needs across all regions of Somalia.
