Afmadow town was recovered from “Al Shabaab by AMISOM/SNA on June, 2012. At the beginning of June 2016, the Jubba River broke its banks and floods affected an estimated 5,000 households (30,000people) in 45 villages in Bu’ale and Jilib districts mostly along the river including farmlands according to local elders.. As the result an estimated 800 IDPs households ( 4,800 people) mainly of Somali Bantu origin arrived in Afmadow resulting in an increase in number of IDPs by 64 per cent in the town to a total of 7,900 people. Food, WASH, Shelter/NFIs, improved nutrition and health services remain the key priority needs. From 17-23 July, with OCHA in the lead, humanitarian partners including WFP, IOM,WASDA, ARC, Adeso and WRRS and the Food Security and Livelihoods, Health, Education, and WASH cluster focal points, conducted a rapid assessment in Afmadow town to better understand the humanitarian situation of the IDPs and refugee returnees from Kenya and identify their immediate needs.

Region Receiving People Population Movement Trends Continued to Decrease from 12,000 in July to 9,000 in the Month of August
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. Mogadishu 3,000 Cross-border movements from Kenya to Somalia were reported to have been a total of 600 individuals. -
