The funds are needed to save lives and provide lifesaving assistance for families affected by drought, the UN said in a statement.
Drought and conflict in Somalia forced more than a million people to flee their homes in 2017. The drought, which was declared a national disaster, left 6.2 million people in the Horn of Africa nation in need of humanitarian assistance and 388,000 children below the age of five acutely malnourished.
