Brief on extreme levels of acute food insecurity persisting in northern conflict-affected areas and drought-affected pastoral areas in southern and southeastern areas of Ethiopia. In southern and southeastern areas, the ongoing historic drought continues to lead to widespread livestock deaths, displacement, and limited access to food and income. Low household income, coupled with high food prices, continue to severely restrict financial access to food among many pastoral households in southern and southeastern Ethiopia. In northern Ethiopia, the renewed and escalating conflict has led to increased population displacement and the disruption of harvesting, market, and humanitarian activities.
