The United Nations has warned of widespread flooding in Somalia, due to the spring rains, which could displace hundreds of thousands of people.<\/p>\n

According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), heavy rains in April-June are expected to affect approximately 770,000 people in 22 districts.<\/p>\n

OCHA said humanitarian workers have prepared plans to mitigate the expected impact. However, the agency said urgent resources are still needed to ensure a timely response.<\/p>\n

OCHA has warned that heavy rains will increase the risk of cholera outbreaks in regions where the disease has not been reported for years.<\/p>\n

The United Nations said it was working with Somali health officials on preparedness efforts under the guidance of a six-month $5.9 million action plan to deal with cholera situations that could arise from the floods.<\/p>\n
