The cholera outbreak that started in December 2017 in Beletweyne along river Shabelle has spread to Jowhar, Kismayo, Afgoye Merka and Banadir. The cholera spread is expected to increase due to the floods that have led to contamination of water sources in the flood affected regions. Floods have also led to blockage of access of health services which will contribute to delayed health seeking by the affected populations with. Over the past 2 weeks, there has been decrease in the number of AWD/Cholera cases reported in Lower Shabelle, Banadir and Lower Jubba; the regions that are affected by floods. In week ending 15th July, active transmission of AWD/cholera was reported in Kismayo district in Lower Jubba, Afgoye Kurtunwarey, Brava and Merka in Lower Shabelle as well as in 11 districts of Banadir region (Darkenly, Daynile, Hodan, Madina, Waberi, HamarWeine, Hamarjabjab, Shingani, Wardhigley, Yaqshid, and Howlwadag districts) (fig 3). In Kismayo, affected communities especially in Farjano IDP are reportedly using contaminated water due to floods. As shown in table 1, there was a decrease in the number of cases reported from 151 in week 27 to 146 in week 28. The Oral Cholera Vaccination that was implemented in 11 high risk districts in 2017 of the central region has greatly contributed to the reduction in the number of new AWD/cholera cases compared to the same time in 2017(fig 4).

  • Protection Cluster Update Weekly Report
    Protection Cluster Update Funded by: The People of Japan Weeklyhttp://www.shabelle.net/article.php?id=4297 Report 29 th July 2011 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 in during the last week through the IASC Somalia Protection Cluster monitoring systems. Incidents mentioned in this report are not exhaustive. They are intended to highlight credible reports in order to inform programming and advocacy by the humanitarian community and national authorities. General Overview A combination of famine, drought, lawlessness and conflict during the last two weeks continues to raise the number of multi layered direct and indirect protection related cases in South Central Somalia. The United Nations officially declared famine in parts of Bakool and Lower Shabelle regions, declaring that Somalia is experiencing the worst drought in decades. 1 Currently in some parts of Bakool and Lower Shabelle, acute malnutrition tops 50 percent and death rates exceed six per 10,000 populations per day. 2 In other parts of southern Somalia, the humanitarian crisis is escalating as aid agencies struggle with funding constraints and access to Al Shabaab controlled areas. Although Al Shabaab recently lifted a ban on aid agencies, the group has since retracted the statement and has continued to restrict humanitarian aid access in many areas under their control. 3 Hence many aid agencies have reported that they are still unable to reach an estimated 2.2 million Somalis facing starvation in many Al Shabaab controlled areas.

    Population Movement Tracking Monthly Report August , 2012 Total movement within Somalia: 9,000 nationwide UNHCR Office Location Region receiving people Population movement trends continued to decrease from 12,000 in July to 9,000 in the month of August. Region People Awdal 200 This downward trend in movements is likely to have resulted from the cessation of fighting between Woqooyi Galbeed 200 AMISOM/SNF and Al-Shabaab in areas once under the control of Al-Shabaab. Despite this, residents in Sanaag 0 some districts still fear conflict due to sporadic fighting between AMISOM/SNF forces and disperesed Al- Bari 100 Shabab groups. For example, Xudur district saw disperesed Al-Shabaab groups trying to reinstate its Sool 0 authority. Almost 2,000 people left Marka because of fighting between these two groups. Major Togdheer 100 movements took place in Mogadishu which received almost 3,000 people due to the defeat of Al-Shabaab Nugaal 0 militants from surroudning regions. Insecurity remained the main reason for movement, resulting in almost Mudug 100 Galgaduud 0 5,000 displacements. This month, Marka and Kismayo district exepericned insecurity which led to almost Hiraan 0 2,000 and 900 people respectively flee to other districts. Lack of livelihood was the secondary reason for Bakool 300 movement. Residents in Gedo region were deeply affected by the failure of the previous rainy season. Shabelle Dhexe 300 Forced returns from Saudi Arabia continued this month, with about 400 individuals returned to Mogadishu.

  • Article Monitoring Mogadishu
    Article Monitoring Mogadishu Alice Hills University of Leeds, UK [email protected] Abstract Technology-based surveillance practices have changed the modes of policing found in the global North but have yet to influence police–citizen engagement in Southern cities such as Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. Based on the role played by monitoring in Mogadishu’s formal security plan and in an informal neighbourhood watch scheme in Waberi district, this article uses a policy- oriented approach to generate insight into surveillance and policing in a fragile and seemingly dysfunctional environment. It shows that while watching is an integral aspect of everyday life, sophisticated technologies capable of digitally capturing real-time events play no part in crime reporting or in the monitoring of terrorist threats, and information is delivered by using basic and inclusive methods such as word of mouth, rather than by mobile telephones or social media. Indeed, the availability of technologies such as CCTV has actually resulted in the reproduction and reinforcement of older models of policing; even when the need to monitor security threats encourages residents to engage with the task of policing, their responses reflect local preferences and legacy issues dating from the 1970s and 2000s. In other words, policing practice has not been reconfigured. In Mogadishu, as in most of the world, the policing task is shaped as much by residents’ expectations as by the technologies available. Introduction It is often assumed that the use of technologies capable of monitoring or capturing real-time events enables people to become more engaged in surveillance and policing.
