The "Horn of Africa" in eastern Africa has been afflicted by the worst drought in 60 years. Large swaths of areas in Somalia, Kenya, Djibouti and Ethiopia face a crisis.

According to the UN official website, the crisis has affected 11.5 million people, with shockingly high rates of malnutrition and mortality among the children.

Somalia is the country worst affected, with about 4,000 of its displaced people becoming refugees in Kenya and Ethiopia every day.
