Kenya remains on high alert as Tropical Cyclone Hidaya threatens to dump more torrential rains on East African countries, which recently emerged from three years of historic drought.
The heavy rains have caused deadly flooding and landslides that have killed nearly 400 people across the region since March.
The UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Kenya, Stephen Jackson, has been calling for a “push on resilience” as extreme weather events intensify due to climate change.
UN News’s Thelma Nadzua began by asking him about the UN’s ongoing support to the Government as the rains continue.
