Following the initial assessment, the urgent needs of IDPs were found to be food and NFIs. The IDPs intend to return to their places of origin, subject to improvement of the security situation. UNHCR is coordinating with WFP and implementing partners to ensure that the urgent needs of IDPs are met. Ghazni 237 families (1,908 individuals) were displaced from the Giro district to the provincial centre of Ghazni during April and May 2014.

Kapisa 161 families (966 individuals) were displaced within Nijrab district of Kapisa province from Afghanya and Haiderkhil villages to Chokanbaz, Pachaghan and Sharifkhel villages in district centre. IDPs were displaced due to intensified armed conflict, insurgency and counter-insurgency operations in their villages of origin. The families were displaced in February 2014. They were profiled by a joint team composed of staff from UNHCR, WFP’s implementing partner and DoRR. The IDPs are living with their relatives and in the host community. The identified needs of IDPs, including food, NFIs and shelter, will be addressed soon. Eastern region –4,760 IDPs profiled during May 2014 Jalalabad 700 families (4,448 individuals) were displaced from different districts of Kunar, Kabul and Nangarhar provinces to Jalalabad city, Surkhrud, Nazyan, Behsood, Kama and Kuz Kunar districts of Nangarhar between February and May 2014. The IDPs were assessed in May by joint teams of DoRR, UNHCR, WFP, DRC, IRC and UNHCR’s implementing partner APA. Armed conflicts between two AGE groups, as well as harassment and intimidation by AGEs, have been the main causes of displacement. All IDPs profiled received food and NFIs, while vulnerable families received solar lamps, sanitary kits, tents, and emergency latrine and hygiene kits on an as-needed basis. The IDP task force members participating in distributions included UNHCR, NRC, IRC, DRC, and WFP. The majority of the families have been known as pro- government in their places of origin and this made them more likely to be harassed by AGEs. Considerable numbers of IDP families are living in shared rooms and in tents, while some families are currently living with their relatives and friends. Kunar 15 families (88 individuals) were displaced from Marawara, Nari and Wata Pur districts of Kunar to Asadabad city, within the same province. Displacement took place gradually from February to April 2014. IDPs were profiled in May by a joint team of UNHCR’s implementing partner ODCG, NRC, WFP and DORR. Harassment and intimidation by AGEs were identified as the main reasons for displacement during the relevant period. Some members of the IDP group were working with ANSF and were subject to additional pressure by AGEs as a result. IDPs are currently living in rented houses. The heads of households are unskilled and have not been able to find work. UNHCR provided 24 qualified women with solar lamps and sanitary materials, while NRC and WFP provided NFIs and food to all families. Nuristan 46 families (224 individuals) were displaced from Bargi Metal district of Nuristan and Dawlatshah district of Laghman to Parun district of Nuristan. Although their displacement occurred in October and November 2013, the families were profiled in May 2014 due to various reasons including security and access. The initial assessment took place by a joint team of UNHCR’s implementing partner ODCG, WFP and DoRR. The main causes of displacement included harassment and intimidation by AGEs and land disputes. IDPs were found living in rented houses with sufficient living space; however, the assessment team identified urgent needs as food and NFIs, which were provided following the assessment by UNHCR and WFP. Northern Region - 4,152 IDPs profiled during May 2014 Note: the mentioned increase in the number of IDPs for North is 7,110 individuals in the breakdown table in the first page of this report; however, the actual number of profiled IDPs in May is 4,152 individuals, while the additional 2,958 individuals is the increase which has been identified in older IDP caseloads during the verification exercise conducted in early 2014. (More details are available in the following sections.) Faryab 359 families (2,154 individuals) were displaced from different districts of Faryab to Khaja Sabz, Maimana and Pashtunkot districts within the same province between January and May 2014.

IDPs are willing to return to their places of origin, subject to improvement of the security situation. Food, NFIs and shelter have been identified as the prioritized needs of the families; so far about 150 families have received food and NFIs from Save the Children, NCA, ARCS and ANDMA, and UNHCR is coordinating with WFP and implementing partners to ensure the urgent needs of the remaining families are met soon. Kunduz 229 families (1,296 individuals) were displaced from Archi district of Kunduz province to Imam Saheb district and provincial centre (Kunduz city) within the same province during the first two weeks of May 2014.

  • 23 September 2010
    SIOC – Afghanistan: UNITED NATIONS CONFIDENTIAL UN Department of Safety and Security, Afghanistan Security Situation Report, Week 38, 17- 23 September 2010 JOINT SECURITY ANALYSIS The number of security incidents experienced a dramatic increase over the previous week. This increase included primarily armed clashes, IED incidents and stand-off attacks, and was witnessed in all regions. At a close look, the massive increase is due to an unprecedented peak of security incidents recorded on Election Day 18 September, with incidents falling back to the September average of 65 per day afterwards. Incidents were more widely spread than compared to last year’s Election Day on 20 August 2009, but remained within the year-on-year growth span predicted by UNDSS-A. As last year, no spectacular attacks were recorded on 18 September, as the insurgents primarily targeted the population in order to achieve a low voter turn-out. Kunduz recorded the highest numbers in the NER on Election Day, while Baghlan has emerged as the AGE centre of focus afterwards. In the NR, Faryab accounted for the majority of incidents, followed by Balkh; Badghis recorded the bulk of the security incidents in the WR. The south to east belt accounted for the majority of the overall incidents, with a slight change to the regional dynamics with the SER recording nearly double the number of incidents as the SR, followed by the ER. Kandahar and Uruzgan accounted for the majority of incidents in the SR, while lack of visibility and under-reporting from Hilmand Province continues to result in many of the incidents in the SR remaining unaccounted for.

Brig. Gen. Aminullah Amarkhel in an exclusive interview with Pajhwok Afghan News said militants would not be able to destabilize Ghazni. He recently visited Giro, Zanakhan, Andar and some other districts and met local residents. Amarkhel said Taliban militants had tasted defeat in many areas of Ghazni. “If the central government provides me two helicopters, I will make Ghazni a hell for Daesh and Taliban,” he said. He said Daesh or Islamic State (IS) fighters had recently emerged in Giro district of Ghazni and Khak-i-Afghan district of neighbouring Zabul province, an issue he said needed attention of government leaders. “I will take harsh action against those who run kangaroo courts in Ghazni,” Amarkhel said. A provincial council member, Abdul Jamay Jamay, told Pajhwok security situation could improve if police were provided needed equipment. He said people were already cooperating with security forces. www.afgazad.com 1 [email protected] Lala Mohamamd, a resident of Ghazni city, said the government alone could not ensure security. He said people should fully support the government in ensuring security.

  • Daily Situation Report 10 November 2010 Safety and Security Issues Relevant to Sssi Personnel and Clients
    Strategic SSI - Afghanistan DAILY SITUATION REPORT 10 NOVEMBER 2010 SAFETY AND SECURITY ISSUES RELEVANT TO SSSI PERSONNEL AND CLIENTS STANDING THREAT ASSESSMENT (KABUL): Threat reports continue to indicate that insurgents aspire to conduct coordinated attacks in Kabul City, as such the threat remains extant. Recent threat reporting has also indicated likely reconnaissance of areas and businesses frequented by members of the international community. Although no significant attacks were carried out in Kabul during the recent parliamentary election, or indeed after the event, the recent reduction in physical security in the city may provide insurgents with exploitable opportunities to carry out attacks. Suicide and complex attacks remain the preferred choice for insurgents in order to gain maximum casualties figures and the associated high degree of media attention. It remains possible that insurgents will still seek to undermine the democratic process by conducting high profile attacks when the final results are announced. It remains prudent for international agencies in the Kabul area to maintain a high degree of security vigilance. Sporadic IDF attacks in the city centre are to be expected. Any attacks are likely to consist of between one and four 107 mm rockets launched towards the city centre. Incidents of intimidation, executions by insurgents and targeting of government officials are increasing throughout the country. It seems to be a form of revenge by insurgents as they have lost more than 300 insurgent commanders over the past
