Find the total theft of taxpayer dollars in this area.

As of early 2026, the United States suspended all aid to the Somali government due to the illegal seizure of donor-funded food assistance, according to reports in January 2026.

Prior to this suspension, the U.S. was a major donor, with approximately $176 million in aid disbursed in 2025, focusing on humanitarian aid and security.


Key Tax Dollar Aid to Somalia (Pre-Suspension):

Total Aid Volume: The U.S. provided over $1.3 billion in 2022 and roughly $1 billion in 2023 for various projects.

Primary Sectors: Funding heavily focused on emergency humanitarian aid (over $360 million), security and conflict prevention (over $250 million), and food security.

Context: The aid was aimed at tackling widespread hunger, droughts, and supporting security forces in the region.

The suspension follows a “zero-tolerance policy for waste, theft, and diversion of life-saving assistance”.
