A devastating drought that has struck the Horn of Africa could not have occurred without global warming, according to a new report from an international team of climate scientists.

"Without this effect, the region would not have experienced agricultural drought - when crops and pastures are affected by dry conditions - over the last two years," the summary added.

The WWA said that, for its rapid analysis,"scientists looked at changes in rainfall in 2021 and 2022 in the affected region, covering southern Ethiopia, southern Somalia and eastern Kenya". "This wettening trend in the short rains has been masked recently by the La Nina weather pattern, which reduces rainfall in the short rains."Joyce Kimutai, a Kenyan climatologist who contributed to the report, told AFP:"It is time we act and engage differently. Central to this process is to transform and enhance resilience of our systems.
