# FSNAU-FEWS NET 2018 Post Gu Technical Release, 1 February 2019 [EN/SO] - Somalia | ReliefWeb

> The FSNAU-FEWS NET post-Gu technical release says more than 1.5 million people in Somalia are expected to face IPC Phase 3 (Crisis) or worse through June 2019. It attributes this to below-average Deyr rains and the effects of the 2016/17 drought and conflict. About 903,100 children under five are likely to be acutely malnourished.

## Why it matters

Somalia is a small import market for grains, so the humanitarian food shortfall has little effect on global feed or grain prices. Demand for food aid imports may rise modestly.
