June 16 is the "International African children's Day", which aims to make people understand the suffering of African children, such as hunger, war, poverty and disease. Humanitarian relief organizations, including United Nations agencies, and a number of meteorological agencies recently issued a joint statement warning that the horn of Africa is suffering from the worst drought in decades due to the lack of rain in the rainy season for four consecutive years. In the first quarter of this year, Somalia, Kenya and Ethiopia reported a significant increase in the number of severely malnourished children receiving treatment compared with previous years.
