It covers the period between 31 May and 4 June 2014. The next report will be issued on or around 11 June 2014. Highlights • Over 20,000 people are newly displaced in Bangui due to renewed violence. • On 1 June, an inter-agency mission, led by the Senior Humanitarian Coordinator, visited four sites that have received new IDPs in Bangui and identified multi-sectoral needs. • IOM’s cash-for-work activities to clean streets, markets and gutters in Bangui’s 5th district resumed on 2 June with 150 youths.

Saint Antoine de Padoue They include human rights violations against IDPs, such as targeted killings, movement restrictions, physical violence and Legend enforced disappearances. New IDPs IDPs already in the site Around 20,000 new IDPs 558,500 US$565 32% 4.6 million IDPs in CAR Funding available (about $178 Population of CAR million million) against the revised Revised 2014 Strategic SRP 133,500 Response Plan (SRP) 2.5 million IDPs in 43 sites in Bangui and requirements People who need assistance with host families 1.9 million Vulnerable people targeted by SRP for humanitarian aid Sources: OCHA, CMP, Protection Cluster and FTS Situation Overview The security situation in Bangui has been tense since the intercommunal conflict and attack on the Notre Dame de Fatima church on 28 May. Protests were organized on 30 May, mobilizing about 6,000 people, most of whom were women, youths and children. French forces (Sangaris) and the African-led international support mission in CAR (MISCA) increased patrols. Over 20,000 people were newly displaced by this upsurge of violence, leading to deplorable and overcrowded living conditions at religious and other sites for internally displaced persons (IDPs). On 1 June, the Senior Humanitarian Coordinator (SHC), Claire Bourgeois, led an inter-agency mission in Bangui to some of the sites that have received the highest numbers of IDPs. The mission found that most of the sites visited were already overcrowded, and the new arrivals had put extra pressure on scarce water services and basic reserves. The mission assessed the humanitarian situation of IDPs and revealed important needs across a number of sectors,The respective clusters are planning immediate assistance. United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Coordination Saves Lives | www.unocha.org Central African Republic Situation Report No. 28 | 2 As access is a key concern, the humanitarian community in CAR issued a media statement on 31 May recalling the humanitarian principles of neutrality, impartiality and independence and calling for unhindered access,reminding everyone that humanitarian organizations are working in support of the Government’s efforts to help people in difficulty, and to provide assistance in areas of health, water access, food security, shelter, sanitation, protection, and other fundamental needs. From 27 to 31 May, UNHCR, UNFPA and INTERSOS carried out a mission to monitor the protection situation of at- risk communities in Boda (Lobaye Province). The mission revealed that the entire IDP population still faces various protection incidents, and that IDPs’ basic rights are violated. These include deliberate and targeted killings, movement restrictions, physical violence and enforced disappearances. The mission recommended the following actions: advocacy for the return and deployment of State services to Boda and Boganagone; advocacy with local authorities and military forces, including MISCA, to enable IDPs to move freely; encourage dialogue among the communities; ensure regular monitoring of the protection situation; strenghten humanitarian interventions by implementing the plan of action on Boda; and support social-cohesion initiatives. On 26 May, UNHCR launched a verification operation to document the situation of urban refugees and asylum seekers in Bangui. The operation aims to update UNHCR figures and assess needs in order to better target assistance and identify durable solutions. The operation is carried out with the support of the National Commission for Refugees, which provides new identification documents to asylum seekers and refugees. The Danish Refugee Council also provides social assistance, including medical aid and financial assistance to the most vulnerable cases. The last verification operation took place in 2011 and the follow-up was hindered by persisting conflict. More than 4,500 refugees and asylum seekers from 23 countries were documented as living in Bangui. The verification operation is scheduled to end in mid-June. IOM’s cash-for-work activities to clean streets, markets and gutters in Bangui’s 5th district resumed on 2 June with 150 youths, after a temporary suspension from 29 to 30 May due to insecurity. In the 3rd district, the cash-for-work programme has been suspended since 26 May due to persisting insecurity. Funding The Strategic Response Plan (SRP) requires US$565 million. Only 32 per cent of funding has been received. Early recovery, education, nutrition and emergency shelter are the least funded sectors. The Senior Humanitarian Coordinator has approved $9.4 million for 13 emergency response projects ($8.4 million allocated to NGOs and $1 million to a UN agency) through the Common Humanitarian Fund. These projects will be implemented in all provinces except Mbomou, Haut Mbomou and Bangui. This funding will ensure assistance in health, WASH, shelter and NFI, nutrition and protection, targeting about 700,000 people. All humanitarian partners, including donors and recipient agencies, are encouraged to inform OCHA's Financial Tracking Service (FTS - http://fts.unocha.org) of cash and in-kind contributions by e-mailing: [email protected] Humanitarian Response Food Security $180 million Required to provide food to Needs 1.25 million targeted • More food assistance and nutrition support are needed following the findings of the vulnerable people in 2014.

Approximately 90 per cent of the seed-protection distributions were completed in these most vulnerable areas as part of the agricultural campaign. • WFP continues to increase food assistance coverage in remote areas and actively advocates more engagement by additional partners to strengthen capacity and response in the interior. • FAO has distributed crop seeds and tools to 48,000 farming families for the current planting season to support the 2014 agricultural campaign, as CAR faces a serious food and nutrition crisis. Another 33,000 rural households countrywide are expected to receive agricultural kits by mid-June. As of 3 June, 1,200 tons of seeds have been distributed this year. • Each family is receiving 25 kgs of crop seeds and two hoes. This will enable households to produce at least 500 kgs of groundnuts, maize and rice that will help to feed a family for about four months. • In total, 1,800 tons of staple crop seeds will be distributed by FAO and its humanitarian partners by the end of the current planting season in June to 80,000 of the targeted 150,000 families for the year, in 15 provinces countrywide. • The countrywide FAO seeds and tools distribution projects are targeting the most food insecure rural families, particularly in the north-west provinces of Ouham and Ouham-Pende. These families have been highly affected by the conflict, and these areas are considered emergency zones in the April 2014 IPC. • FAO is consolidating the resilience capacity of many rural families through a comprehensive approach addressing social, technical and financial aspects. About 500 farmers’ groups and women’s associations have created resilience funds (caisses de résilience). They will facilitate the restoration of storage facilities and cash- for-work activities. Gaps • Rising levels of insecurity countrywide are a major challenge for the distribution of agricultural inputs. As a result of fighting last week, FAO and its partners suspended distribution in Bambari. Nine trucks transporting FAO’s agricultural kits to the northern provinces remained blocked in Bangui due to protests. • The rainy season will affect the capacity to transport agricultural kits and food assistance to be distributed countrywide, as roads will become impassable and prolong transportation time.

Eric By Berman with Louisa N. Lombard report on the volume, origins, and distribution of small arms in any African state. But it goes beyond the focus on small arms. It also provides a much-needed backdrop to the complicated political convulsions that have transformed CAR into a regional tinderbox. There is no better source for anyone interested in putting the ongoing crisis in its proper context.’ —Dr René Lemarchand Emeritus Professor, University of Florida and author of The Dynamics of Violence in Central Africa ’The Central African Republic, surrounded by warring parties in Sudan, Chad, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, lies on the fault line between the international community’s commitment to disarmament and the tendency for African conflicts to draw in their neighbours. The Central African Republic and Small Arms unlocks the secrets of the breakdown of state capacity in a little-known but pivotal state in the heart of Africa. It also offers important new insight to options for policy-makers and concerned organizations to promote peace in complex situations.’ —Professor William Reno Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Political Science, Northwestern University Photo: A mutineer during the military unrest of May 1996.

  • UNICEF Central African Republic Flash Update – 1 February 2021
    UNICEF Central African Republic Flash Update – 1 February 2021 Context and humanitarian situation On 18 January, the Constitutional Court confirmed the reelection of President Faustin Archange Touadera in the first round of the 27 December election. The last two weeks of January have been marked by a decrease in armed violence, as the Coalition des Patriotes pour le Changement (CPC) seems to have mostly stopped its offensive towards Bangui but the situation remains tense and unpredictable. Fighting between CPC and governmental forces and their allies has been reported along the main two roads leading West from Bangui. A national curfew is still in force from 6pm to 5am, and on 24 January the CAR government proclaimed a state of emergency for an initial period of two weeks. Partners of UNICEF-led Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM) have also issued four new conflict-related alerts across the country, resulting in the flight of about 8,000 people. OCHA estimates that 106,000 people remain internally displaced as of 31 January as a direct result of the post- electoral violence and ongoing tensions, and according to UNHCR more than 84,000 Central Africans are currently in DRC, Cameroon, Chad and the Republic of Congo due to the crisis. The main cities and towns affected by the influx of internally displaced people (IDPs) include Bouar, Bangassou, Dekoa, Bouca, Ndomete, Grimari and the surroundings of Bangui. IDPs are found mostly in locations considered safer within the affected towns, such as churches, peacekeeping bases, schools or in the surrounding bush. An unknown number has also found refuge with host families.
