KENYA 2020. FAO Desert locust invasion response campaign

31 March 2020, Kipsing, close to Oldonyiro, Isiolo county, Kenya - Desert locusts fill the air in north-eastern Kenya. Swarms of desert locusts have invaded Kenya from Somalia and Ethiopia, destroying vegetation and crops. As ravenous swarms threaten the East Africa subregion, FAO scales up its emergency response with a massive, border-spanning campaign to combat the locust upsurge.
