UN says alarmed by prolonged drought in southern Ethiopia. Sat Mar 1, 3:09 PM ET ADDIS ABABA (AFP) - The United Nations said Friday it was alarmed by a prolonged drought that has worsened food and water availability in Ethiopia. Assessment teams have been sent to the area where insufficient October and December rainfall has spurred a surge in disease outbreaks and lifestock death, according to the UN office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). "Death and poor health conditions of livestock, dwindling water supplies and ongoing human disease outbreaks are having a negative impact upon health, nutrition and wellbeing in the region," it said. Around 4,660 livestock have died since mid-February, OCHA added in a statement.
