  • Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS
    Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS · Sool Plateau Update : Rains of low intensity and limited spatial coverage fell in the first week of December but did little to alleviate the current humanitarian crisis in Sool Plateau. Nutritional status surveys reflect the deteriorating food security situation of residents. An acute malnutrition rate of 18.9% (W/H<2 z-score or oedema) was found during the first round of Sool Plateau sentinel site surveil- lance exercise in November/December 2003. A UNICEF led mission in mid-December 2003 also recorded an equally high malnutri- tion rate in Sool Plateau of Sanaag (4,841 children screened). The rate was significantly higher in Sool Plateau of Sool Region (2,049 children were screened). Civil insecurity in the area is now threatening to disrupt humanitarian relief operations in the region. · Drought in Hawd of Todgheer : An inter-agency rapid assessment led by the FSAU found that the poor and lower levles of the middle wealth pastoral group are facing a high risk of food shortage, largely as a result of poor Gu 2003 and failed Deyr 2003 rains. Affected households will need to be closely monitored during the harsh, dry Jilaal season. For more information on the drought stricken region, see page 2. · Galgadud Region : UN-OCHA Somalia and FSAU carried out a low level mission to Galagdud (13-20 December 2003) to districts where people had been displaced following civil insecurity in the region. This diplacement, combined with a two month delay in the onset of the Deyr rains has undermined agricultural and livestock activities, increasing the risk of food insecurity.

  • Protection Cluster Update Weekly Report
    Protection Cl uster Update Funded by: The People of Japan Weeklyhttp://www.shabelle.net/article.php?id=4297 Report 30 th March 2012 European Commission IASC Somalia •Objective Protection Monitoring Network (PMN) Humanitarian Aid This update provides information on the protection environment in Somalia, including apparent violations of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law as reported during the last two weeks through the IASC Somalia Protection Cluster monitoring systems. Incidents mentioned in this report are not exhaustive. They are intended to highlight credible reports to inform and prompt programming and advocacy initiatives by the humanitarian community and national authorities. GENERAL OVERVIEW During the reporting period, fighting continued between Al-Shabaab forces and forces supporting the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) in Lower Juba, Banadir and Bakool regions resulting in the displacement of people, mainly within these regions and an unknown number of civilian casualties. Heavy fighting erupted between Al Shabaab and Ethiopian forces in Xudur district of Bakool region. The heavy fighting resulted in an unconfirmed number of casualties and the occupation of Xudur district by the pro-TFG forces who subsequently imposed a night-time curfew.1 Indiscriminate attacks against the civilian population, including IDPs remained a major concern over the past two weeks. At least 11 people were killed and 12 others injured during the past two weeks owing to mortars landing in Beerta Darawiishta IDP settlements of Banadir region. Al Shabaab forces are reported to have instructed IDPs to move away from areas surrounding the presidential palace as they intended to continue their attacks. 2 Fighting also erupted between Al Shabaab and Ahlul Sunna Wal-jama’a (ASWJ) in Dhuusamarreeb district of Galgaduud region resulting with approximately 300 displacements arriving mainly in Gaalkacyo district of Mudug and Garowe district of Nugaal region.

  • Somalia 2021 Gu Seasonal Monitor, June 5, 2021
    SOMALIA Seasonal Monitor June 05, 2021 FEWS NET publishes a Seasonal Monitor for Somalia every 10 days (dekad) through the end of the current April to June gu rainy season. The purpose of this document is to provide updated information on the progress of the gu season to facilitate contingency and response planning. This Somalia Seasonal Monitor is valid through June 10, 2021, and is produced in collaboration with U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit (FSNAU) Somalia, the Somali Water and Land Information System (SWALIM), a number of other agencies, and several Somali non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Most of Somalia continued to receive little to no rainfall through the end of May Continuing a trend of low rainfall since mid-May, field reports indicate that most of Somalia received little or no rainfall during the May 21-31 period. According to preliminary CHIRPS remote sensing data, however, most of the country received less than 10 mm (mm) of rain, while localized areas in Juba, Bay, Shabelle, and Nugaal regions received 10 to 25 mm of rain. (Figure 1). Compared to the long-term average (1981-2018), total precipitation in most of northwestern and southern Somalia was 10-25 mm below average. In the rest of the country, rainfall totals were climatologically average (Figure 2). According to the most recent FAO SWALIM river station gauge data, water levels at key monitoring points along the Shabelle and Juba rivers have significantly receded and are currently well below moderate flood risk levels. The decline is attributed to low rainfall over both Somalia’s riverine areas and the upstream river catchments in the Ethiopian highlands.
