Initial Rapid Needs Assessment Report Internally Displaced Persons in Twic County Warrap from Unity State 3 January 2014 IRNA Report Twic IDPs from Unity State 3 Jan 2014 Initial Rapid Needs Assessment Report Internally Displaced Persons in Twic County Warrap from Unity State 3 January 2014 Important: - IRNA Report should include secondary data collected by all stakeholders and jointly analyzed - IRNA Report should also include community level assessment analysis by clusters and then jointly analyzed by all stakeholders - Report should adequately cover the de-briefing analysis of assessment team leaders - This report should be produced within two days after the IRNA taking place 1 IRNA Report Twic IDPs from Unity State 3 Jan 2014 Situation Overview (use the secondary information as well as the information gathered under the ‘Generalist’ section of the IRNA questionnaire. Map Drivers of Crisis and underlying factors Place map of affected area if available Conflict has spread across South Sudan following an alleged coup attempt three weeks ago in Juba. Among the states directly affected by the crisis is Unity State which neighbours Warrap State to the East. An influx of Internally Displaced People (IDPs) into Warrap’s Twic County has steadily increased since the last week of December Affected population: 2013. Most of those IDPs have been directly attacked or been caught (appox. Male/female and boys/girls) up in the cross fire during the fighting that has ensued in Unity State, while some have run out of seer fear. Displaced population: (appox. Male/female and boys/girls) Scope of crisis and humanitarian profile Most of the displaced are from Mayom County in Unity State, while 3,215 individuals some have been displaced from as far as Bentiu town the Unity State with possible increase in coming days capital itself, in Rubkona County. The specific areas from where Key Priorities these people have fled include Mayom, Mankien, Galjak, Kaikang and Booth. They moved from Bentiu and Mayom through Immediate provision of food, water, Abiemnhom in Unity State and arrived in Ajakuac, Molbang in Twic sanitation and NFIs assistance County in Warrap State. On the advice of local authorities they including shelter and cooking utensils moved further inwards in Warrap. The IDPs are now mainly located as well as other basic needs, to the in three places, Aweng, Turalei and Man-Angui, in Twic County of affected IDPs as their situation is seen Warrap State. The IDPs consist of a number of tribes that fled to be dire following attacks on their homes. Many witnessed their relatives and friends shot and killed during the attacks. Most of them fled with none or very few belongings. Different groups left Unity State at different times from 19 December 2013, to present. Most of them walked all the way while a few were transported on passing by military trucks. Having left with a few or no belongings the IDPs are completely destitute currently relying on the host community. It is evident and clear that the population are in need of immediate humanitarian assistance in all basic aspects. The local authorities have designated a Man-Angui, in Wunrok Payam, as the location where the IDPs will be taken for security reasons and to provide adequate space. They have gone ahead to transfer over 1,000 of the IDPs from Aweng to Man-Angui. The team members, including the State Relief and Rehabilitation Commission (RRC) Director, have assessed this location as unsuitable to settle the IDPs, because there is neither shelter nor clean drinking water. The location is just in the bush far from any borehole or source of clean water. The market and host community are so far away to provide assistance. The team agreed for RRC Director and County RRC Secretary to make more consultation with County Commissioner to change the location in order to avoid another hazard on the IDPs. At the time of the assessment no formal registration of the IDPs had been undertaken. Estimates of the total number of IDPs in the three mentioned locations in Twic are summarised in the table below: 2 IRNA Report Twic IDPs from Unity State 3 Jan 2014 Location Payam County Est. No. of IDPs Aweng Aweng Twic 1,212 Turalei Turalei Twic 165 Man-Angui Wunrok Twic 1,838 Total 3,215 Trends and Scenarios With the on-going military offensives against the rebel groups it is likely that there will be a continued influx of displaced people into Warrap Twic County from Unity State. It is reported that there are groups of people who are crossing the river at the border between the two States and are expected to continue arriving in the coming days. Similar groups have also been reported to be crossing into Abyei Area’s Rumammer County. Further it is expected that the IDPs will remain displaced in the medium term unless the war situation is resolved. Due to the fragile economic and food security situation of the host community in Twic County, that is largely just emerging from the effects of floods in 2013 agricultural season, the newly arrived IDPs will require external humanitarian support to survive at least for the coming few months. Humanitarian Access For now there are no access limitations, security or otherwise, in all the three locations where the IDPs are located. Areas close to the State border with Unity State near the Kiir may be insecure. Local Authorities have been encouraging the IDPs to move further inwards into Warrap State. Military trucks have been used to ferry some of the IDPs to Warrap. Findings (use the information gathered under the cluster specific sections of the IRNA questionnaire) FSL Photos The IDPs virtually came with no food stocks at all as they left their homes in disarray.

Health The risk of outbreak of disease is very high due to the poor living conditions of the IDPs. With lack of hygiene and water and sanitation facilities the IDPs are very exposed. Further most of the families are living out in the open are a vulnerable to mosquitoes and malaria. The water source at Man-Agui bound to cause disease outbreak. Further there are wounded people who require urgent medical Cooking at Awenge attention. Agencies to provide such services such as MSF, to be contacted or alternatively affected people transported to the nearest hospitals in Turalei and Alek. 3 IRNA Report Twic IDPs from Unity State 3 Jan 2014 NFI & ES The IDPs have no shelter at all apart from the few classrooms at two of the location. Otherwise the majority if the population are sleeping out in the open on the bare ground. There are very limited cooking utensils. Nutrition Meal at Awenge Although there were no signs of severe malnutrition among the children, the situation could deteriorate rapidly if no immediate action is taken. WASH The IDPs in Turalei and Aweng are located in school compounds. Although there is a clean water sources at these each of these locations they are limited considering that these water points are also used by the host communities and also the possibility of additional IDPs. In Mana-Agui the nearest watering point is so far away – an estimated walking distance of 45minutes -1 hour. A river is close by Malnourished child Turalei but the water levels are so low and water is also used by livestock. Other WASH concerns include: - open defecation as there are no latrines - there are no water containers for drawing water - most of the IDPs have not taken bath for over one week - there is no soap or hygiene facilities - all the IDPS are poor hygienic condition and the risk of diseases out break due to congestion is high Protection Tree shelter On arrival in Warrap the IDPs were provided with security and the local population has been sensitized and warned by the local authorities against carrying out reprisal attacks. At the time of the assessment South Sudanese Police was observed to be providing security. In Man-Agui it was reported that there were 17 separated children aged between 1-13 years. Further the Man-Agui location is isolated with complete lack of basic services in the vicinity. Other protection issues of concern include: - there are handfuls of women without their husbands or close Only borehole at Awenge relatives and thus highly vulnerable; - A number of women lost their husbands and do not know their whereabouts and thus require psycho-social support. - Hygiene conditions are poor because people are overcrowded in the limited accommodation space in the school classrooms, where they exist, putting women and girls at risk. Under most cases people are sleeping in the open. Other At the time of the assessment there was no formal registration, Water at Man-Agui shared with cows/ other tracking and referral of IDPs for humanitarian assistance. uses Next steps Agreed initial response: Who will do what and by when? 4 IRNA Report Twic IDPs from Unity State 3 Jan 2014 The RRC State Director and RRC County Secretary to pursue and finalize the change of location of the IDP settlement location from Man-Angui as soon as possible and advise all partners, to ensure that response is in a more reasonable and acceptable location.

  • Village Assessment Survey Twic County
    Village Assessment Survey COUNTY ATLAS 2013 Twic County Warrap State Village Assessment Survey The Village Assessment Survey (VAS) has been used by IOM since 2007 and is a comprehensive data source for South Sudan that provides detailed information on access to basic services, infra- structure and other key indicators essential to informing the development of efficient reintegra- tion programmes. The most recent VAS represents IOM’s largest effort to date encompassing 30 priority counties comprising of 871 bomas, 197 payams, 468 health facilities, and 1,277 primary schools. There was a particular emphasis on assessing payams outside state capitals, where com- paratively fewer comprehensive assessments have been carried out. IOM conducted the assess- ment in priority counties where an estimated 72% of the returnee population (based on esti- mates as of 2012) has resettled. The county atlas provides spatial data at the boma level and should be used in conjunction with the VAS county profile.

  • SUDAN • ABYEI Crisis Situation Report No
    SUDAN • ABYEI crisis Situation Report No. 12 09/06/2011 This report is produced by OCHA in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It covers the period from 7 to 9 June. The next report will be issued on 16 June. I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES Humanitarian partners estimate that more than 100,000 people may have been displaced from the Abyei area in the last three weeks. Partners continue to monitor population movements as the situation remains fluid. With more people returning to Agok, the humanitarian presence and activities in the area have also increased. The shortage of fuel for operations and the impact of the rainy season on access to affected locations remain pressing logistic concerns in the ongoing response. II. Situation Overview The situation in Abyei continues to be calm but unpredictable, with sporadic shooting by Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) in Abyei town. The UN has continued to work on negotiating the release of 20-23 civilians in custody of the SAF. This includes 13-14 people held at the time of last reporting, as well as additional 9-10 individuals newly recovered by SAF search teams. The threat of unexploded ordnances in the Abyei area is a cause for concern. UNMIS reported the sighting of unexploded ordnances (UXO) on the southern side of Abyei town, as well as the likelihood of UXOs in Todach village, located close to Abyei town. IOM and the Southern Sudan Relief and Rehab- ilitation Commission continue to monitor population movements of those displaced by the crisis. As of 8 June, the total estimated reported number of persons displaced stood at approximately 101,800.

  • Small Arms Survey/HSBA: "The Conflict in Unity State"
    The Conflict in Unity State Describing events through 29 January 2015 It is now thirteen months since the beginning of the South Sudanese conflict. Both the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army (SPLM/A) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army in Opposition (SPLM/A-IO) have spent the rainy season reinforcing their military positions in Unity state—as elsewhere—in anticipation of a dry season military campaign. The beginning of 2015 has already seen clashes just south of Bentiu—the state capital—in Guit county, and around the oil fields of Rubkona and Pariang counties. As of January 2015, the SPLA maintains control of the northern and western counties of Pariang and Abiemnom, as well as of Bentiu. The SPLA-IO controls Unity’s southern counties, and much of Guit and Rubkona. Mayom, a strategically important county that contains the road from Warrap state— along which SPLA reinforcements could travel—is largely under the control of the SPLA. As dry season begins, the frontlines are just south of Bentiu, in Guit and Rubkona, and just north and west of the oil fields in Rubkona and Pariang: both the oil fields and the state capital will be important SPLA-IO strategic targets in the coming months. Peace negotiations, which continued during the rainy season, have failed to overcome the substantial divergences between the two sides’ positions. An intra-SPLM dialogue recently took place in Arusha, Tanzania, and resulted in an agreement signed on 21 January by the SPLM, SPLM-IO, and the representative of the SPLM detainees, Deng Alor.
