Afrikaans: Twee broers van vier en sewe jaar oud soek water in 'n droë rivierbedding naby Kataboi-dorpie in afgeleë Turkana in die noorde van Kenia. In 40 grade hitte en met geen toegang tot skoon water nie, grawe die seuns gate in die rivierbedding met 'n blikbeker om genoeg op te skep om te drink. Die gebrek aan reën vanjaar oor die Horing van Afrika het gelei tot mislukte oeste, gebrek aan drinkwater en dood van vee. Die regering van Kenia het die droogte tot 'n nasionale ramp verklaar aangesien 3,5 miljoen mense in die land noodleniging benodig. Foto: Marisol Grandon/Departement vir Internasionale Ontwikkeling
English: Two brothers aged four and seven seek water in a dry riverbed near Kataboi village in remote Turkana in northern Kenya. In 40 degree heat and with no access to clean water, the boys resort to digging holes in the riverbed with a tin cup to scoop up enough to drink. The lack of rain this year across the Horn of Africa has resulted in failed crops, lack of water and death of livestock. The Government of Kenya declared the drought a national disaster as 3.5 million people in the country are in need of emergency assistance.
