Drought and water crisis in Kenya
KAJIADO, KENYA - OCTOBER 29: Local residents are filling containers with water that they gather, with great difficulty, from puddles in Oloomunyi village, Kajiado County, Kenya on October 29, 2026. Persistent climate change and erratic precipitation cycles have triggered severe drought across Kenya, posing acute threats to agricultural output, livestock livelihoods, and rural water infrastructure. As water tables drop and local surface sources vanish, pastoralists in Oloomunyi are compelled to travel up to 45 kilometers to secure basic drinking water for their families and herds.
