There is a severe drought across Southern Africa, and millions are facing starvation. Severe drought has destroyed the crops that feed millions and provide the salaries in these countries,and this has led to widespread hunger.

I am surprised that this crisis has not received that much attention. CNN would rather talk about "Trump" all the time now.

My country has been hit by the el nino for about 4 months since the January. We've faced the water rationing plus the 39 degree Celsius temperature. Things were so bad that time. But now, we're warned to face the el nina that could caused flood.
