Iraq CRISIS Situation Report No. 52 (8 July – 14 July 2015) Iraq CRISIS Situation Report No. 52 (8 July – 14 July 2015) This report is produced by OCHA Iraq in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It covers the period from 8 – 14 July. Due to the rapidly changing situation it is possible that the numbers and locations listed in this report may no longer be accurate. The next report will be issued on or around 24 July. Highlights Over 74,000 people flee Falluja in Anbar Governorate since 8 July 618 families successfully relocated to Ashti IDP camp in Sulaymaniyah Governorate Lack of funds closes 28 per cent of WASH programmes. Additional 12 per cent to close within two weeks Limited funding continues to constrain and threaten the delivery of aid to people in need The boundaries and names shown and the designations used on this map do not imply official endorsement or acceptance by the United Nations. Map created 16 July 2015. Situation Overview Over 12,000 families (74,442 individuals) have fled Saqlawiyah City in Falluja District, Anbar Governorate since 8 July, due to recent deteriorations in the security situation, the International Organization (IOM)’s Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) reported on 13 July. Many of these individuals have been displaced twice. This is in addition to the nearly 300,000 people who fled Ramadi District after the Government announced the launch of military operations on 8 April. The vast majority of these people have fled to areas within Anbar and Baghdad governorates. The situation in both Ramadi and Falluja districts remains fluid, with accurate numbers on the total number of displaced difficult to confirm. Humanitarian actors are particularly concerned by reports that tens of thousands of civilians are trapped in both districts. Those trying to flee to safer areas continue to face obstacles. Civilians continue to be prevented by the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) from leaving Falluja, with an increasing number of checkpoints on the Falluja and Abu Alwan bridges being reported by partners. Local authorities in governorates neighbouring Anbar, particularly Baghdad and Babylon, have implemented strict security policies which limit access to IDPs fleeing Ramadi. Restrictions have also been imposed at the entry to Kirkuk Governorate, according to humanitarian partners. A group of 55 IDP families from Falluja and Ramadi are stranded at the Daquq checkpoint in Kirkuk Governorate after being denied access by local authorities. All of the families were in need of humanitarian assistance. Other key concerns in the humanitarian situation include the lack of documentation among internally displaced persons (IDPs), according to the Kurdistan Regional Government’s Joint Crisis Center (JCC). Many children born in displacement lack birth registration documents and up to 50 per cent of all IDP families are reportedly missing at least Iraq IDP Crisis Situation Report No. 52 |2 one important personal identity document. Additional concerns are being raised about delays in the issuance and renewal of residency cards, the JCC reported. Funding shortfalls continue to take a toll on ongoing operations as growing need outpace available resources. More than 50 per cent of operations will be shut down, or cut back, if money is not received within the coming weeks. UN food rations for over 1 million people were cut back in April. Supplies to continue regular monthly distributions will be exhausted by the end of September. The first phase of a planned relocation of more than 1,000 families (6,000 individuals) from the heavily crowded Arbat IDP Camp in Sulaymaniyah Governorate to the recently opened Ashti IDP Camp was completed on 14 July. The newly constructed Ashti Camp, 30km southeast of the town of Sulaymaniyah, has a planned capacity of 1,040 families (over 6,000 individuals) and was constructed to reduce overcrowding at the nearby Arbat Camp. Some 618 families (over 3,700 individuals) were relocated in July, with the remaining 422 IDP families (over 2,500 individuals) to be relocated in August. The Arbat IDP Camp now hosts just over 13,000 IDPs, against a planned capacity of 4,800. Some 44 IDP families (264 individuals) will be relocated to the recently upgraded Zirguiz collective centre in the coming days. With a total capacity of 54 IDP families, the Zirguiz collective centre was upgraded to further decongest Arbat camp. Those families living in temporary tents outside the Arbat IDP Camp are being given priority. Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Needs: WASH services are urgently needed for 150 families (900 individuals) on the Anbar side of the Bzbiz Bridge, 100 families (600 individuals) at the Albo Farhad IDP Camp, and 313 families (1,878 individuals) at the Al- Amel Al-Manshood I and II IDP camps, Anbar Governorate. Shortage of fuel and chlorine, along with irregular water monitoring, is undermining efficient water supplies to IDPs in Habbaniya and Ameriyat al-Falluja sub-districts, Anbar Governorate. WASH facilities and services are required for the newly established IDP camps of Scout Al-Ghazaliyah, Karkh District and the Sader Al Yousifiyah IDP Camp in Mahmoudiya District, both in Baghdad Governorate. Improved WASH services are needed for 500 families (3,000 individuals) at the Al Ahal IDP Camp, Abu Ghraib District; 960 families (over 5,700 individuals) at the Al Takia collective centre, Karkh District; and 155 families (930 individuals) at the Checkpoint No. 75 IDP Camp, Mahmoudiya District, all of which are in Baghdad Governorate. Response: 100 latrines were installed, 100 showers were rehabilitated, 806 hygiene kits were distributed and 76 water tanks were installed for IDPs living in unfinished buildings in the Tarklan, Tessen, Hozeran areas of Kirkuk City, Kirkuk Governorate. Installation of WASH facilities was completed at the Laylan IDP Camp in Daquq District, Kirkuk Governorate. 20,600 IDPs were reached through daily water trucking in Khalidiyah, Habbaniya, Ameriyat al-Falluja, Al Amiriyah, Nukhayb sub-districts, Anbar Governorate. The installation of 18 latrines and showers, along with eight water tanks, is being initiated at the Sader Al Yousifyah IDP Camp, Baghdad Governorate. Distribution of water and hygiene items for 3,284 IDP families in camps and collective centres in Mahmoudiya, Karkh and Abu Ghraib districts, Baghdad Governorate, is continuing. 1,169 hygiene kits were distributed at 10 sites in Amara District, Missan Governorate. 37 water tanks and 63 latrines were installed to serve families settled along the road to Kerbala-Najaf in Najaf Governorate. The installation of a reverse osmosis unit for the water network is continuing. Gaps and Constraints: New displacements, dynamic numbers, ongoing population movements and insecurity make it difficult to deliver critically needed life-saving WASH support to IDPs in hot spots. Provision of an effective WASH response across the country remains severely constrained by lack of funding. 28 per cent of WASH programmes have already closed due to lack of funding. An additional 12 per cent will close by the end of July. There is critical need for funding and supplies to cover WASH service provision in new camps that are being established. Of the US$43.9 million requested under the Iraq Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) for WASH support, only $3.9 million has been received thus far. United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Coordination Saves Lives | www.unocha.org Iraq IDP Crisis Situation Report No. 52 |3 Local partners were forced to suspend daily water trucking in Khalidiyah sub-district and Habbaniya City center, Anbar Governorate, following the onset of military operations. Although services have resumed, there remains a high risk of another suspension, as well as an urgent need to enhance security in the area. Shelter and Non-Food Items Response: Partners completed construction of 310 caravans at the Mamrashan IDP Camp in Shikhan District, Ninewa Governorate, while work on water supply, electrification, and drainage is continuing. Summer non-food item (NFI) kits have been distributed to the following locations: Samarra District, Salah al- Din Governorate (1,100 IDP households), Kirkuk District, Kirkuk Governorate (250 IDP households), Soran District, Erbil Governorate (300 IDP households), Sulaymaniyah District, Sulaymaniyah Governorate (500 IDP households). In addition to mattresses, blankets, water and kerosene jerry cans, summer NFI kits also include either a fan or air cooler, and cool box. Two collective centres (religious buildings) for 80 IDP households were improved in Baghdad Governorate. Amongst these were one collective centre for 40 IDP families (240 individuals) in Adhamia District and one collective centre for 40 IDP families (240 individuals) in Karkh District. 260 tents with an electricity supply have been upgraded with concrete slabs in Falluja District, Anbar Governorate. Gaps and Constraints: Limited funding continues to constrain shelter and NFI support to IDPs. To date, only 6 per cent of the US$95 million requested for the cluster under the 2015 HRP has been funded. Food Security Needs: 4.4 million people remain in need of food assistance across 18 governorates. Below-average wheat production is expected in Iraq. The country faces an exceptional shortfall in aggregate food production and supplies. Internal trade restrictions and reduced access to stocks in areas under ISIL control also pose a challenge. Response: 4,000 food parcels were distributed to IDP households in Ameriyat al-Falluja sub-district, Anbar Governorate, between 7 to 14 July. Through the Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM), 25,051 individuals received Immediate Response Rations (IRRs) – ready-to eat meals for three days – in Salah al-Din, Babylon, Qadiyssia, and Basrah governorates this reporting period. 182,190 individuals were assisted with vouchers, and 840,741 individuals with Family Food Parcels (FFPs) between 1 and 12 July. FFPs are comprised of basic food essentials and are nutritionally designed to provide a family of five with 80 per cent of their daily intake requirements for 30 days.

Most of those who returned were Government civil servants who were requested to return. Approximately 80 per cent of Government employees have gone back to the area, local authorities report. Returnees reportedly were required to submit to ID checks, body and vehicle searches before being allowed through manned checkpoints. Authorities have reportedly dismantled 1,700 improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and cleared more than 200 booby-trapped houses. The recent returns brings the estimated total number of returnees in Tikrit District to 16,384 families (over 98,000 individuals), according to a partner NGO.

WHITLEY SMSgt, USAF Colonel, USAF I Historian Commander Office of History Headquarters 37th Fighter Wing Twelfth Air Force Tactical Air Command Preface This unclassified account of the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing's accomplishments during Operations DESERT SHIELD and DESERT STORM was prepared to permit members of the "Team Stealth" community to reflect with pride on their contribu­ tion to sustained world peace. They proved their mettle in battle and have earned the title of American warrior. It is a testament to their love for country and their willingness to sacrifice for the ideals they defend every day of their lives. The peoples of the United States and the entire Free World are forever in their debt. Nighthawks Over Iraq is based entirely on the contingency historical reports developed by SMSgt Phil Myers during his visit to Saudi Arabia as historian of the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing and the mission tally sheets developed by the wing's operations network. 2 On 5 October 1989, the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing (TFW) relocated to Tonopah Test Range, Nevada, to take up the role as the Air Force's only Stealth Fighter unit.

Specifically, the Elementary Algorithm (of Bellman) in the area of military operations in Iraq is used to determine the shortest route between two cities, Al Faw (a port situated in the south of Iraq) and Dahuk (in the north part of the country), through the capital, Baghdad. This is necessary for transporting troops and military equipment in specific areas. To achieve this, the map of Iraq is figured as a graph, the targeted cities are the vertices of the graph and are named as numbers (from 1 to 28), and distances between cities are the arcs of the graph (values, capacities – in this case are kilometers). The distances between cities and the country map are updated. Keywords: graph, optimal length, minimum length. INTRODUCTION We consider d1 = 0. Now, suppose that we want This article refers to the modality in which the to find dl, where xl is the successor of nodes xi, xj model of optimal length of paths in a graph can be and xk till where the numbers di, dj and dk were applied or adapted to different situations in the already calculated.
