UNAMA Civil Military Weekly Report OCHA – Coordination Saves Lives Issue # 20 13‐20 May 2011 Key Overall Developments Security/Displacement On 18 May, heavy fighting between TFG/AMISOM and Al Shabaab occurred in Mogadishu’s Hodan and Hawl Wadaag districts. At least 20 civilians were reportedly killed and some 80 others were wounded. Civilians continue to bear the brunt of the ongoing offensives in Mogadishu. The majority of the civilian casualties reportedly occurred inside Bakara market, which was hit by a rocket. According to WHO, 933 weapon related‐ injuries were reported by three major hospitals in Mogadishu during the first two weeks of May 2011. About 398 cases or 43 percent were children under the age of five. In April, only 3.5 percent were children younger than five among the reported casualties. UNHCR reports that since 23 February, at least 27,100 people were displaced from or within Mogadishu of whom 12,600 fled the capital and another 14,500 moved to calmer parts of Mogadishu. Rains and Drought updates On 17 May, heavy rainfall was received in Dhahar town and surrounding villages in eastern Sanaag region resulting in flooding of the entire town. Two adults reportedly died as a result of the floods. These areas are now inaccessible by road, therefore needs assessments impossible. Some 150 households are said to have been affected after losing their personal effects including food reserves. According to field reports, the Gu rains continued in some drought‐affected districts and villages in Puntland. However, many areas in northeast Bari region including Kandala, Alula, Bandah Baylah and Iskushuban districts as well as areas in Ely district remain dry. Many areas in Galgaduud and Hiraan regions received rains during the week under review. Field reports indicate that most of the water catchments in pastoral areas have been replenished. However, reports indicate that Jalalaqsi district of Hiraan region and Jowhar district of Middle Shabelle region still continue to experience the drought effect with less rain reported in few locations in these districts. Cases of malnutrition are still rampant in Galgaduud region with deaths of children being reported in Jalalaqsi and Ceel Dheer districts. Response Food Assistance/Logistics During the week under review, WFP delivered a total of 1,180 metric tons of mixed food commodities to 169,000 beneficiaries through wet feeding, institutional feeding, emergency school feeding, food for work and nutrition programmes. Out of the total beneficiaries reached, 140,000 were from Banadir region and 29,000 from Somaliland. WFP’s operations in Somalia are currently experiencing severe pipeline breaks. This is affecting all programmes throughout Somalia resulting in either a large reduction in ration size or a suspension in certain activities, allowing WFP to meet only 30 percent of actual food needs in its areas of operation. Following the engagement with the Executive Board on WFP operations in Somalia, WFP has committed to host The mission of OCHA is to mobilize and coordinate effective and principled humanitarian action in partnership with national and international actors. Celebrating 20 years of coordinated humanitarian action UNOCHA Somalia, Ngecha Rd. (off Lower Kabete Rd). P.O Box 28832, 00200, Nairobi, Kenya. Tel: +254 20 4002400 Website: http://ochaonline.un.org/Somalia three consultations in Nairobi in June 2011 focused on humanitarian operations and risk. All major stakeholders, representatives of the donor community and the humanitarian/development arms of regional entities will be invited to participate. The first two consultations will look at technical issues related to operations and risks in Somalia. The outcomes of the first two consultations will serve as a basis for the third event, a high‐level consultation, which aims to conclude with a broad consensus on key areas of risk and joint actions to mitigate such risks. Health The cholera transition season is ongoing. Most regions of Somalia have received sporadic rainfall. In addition, WHO states that there is a likelihood of a risk in transmission of waterborne diseases as communities tend to utilize water from contaminated sources. Since the first week of January and following a confirmed cholera outbreak in Mogadishu, 2,268 AWD/cholera cases including 1,782 (79 percent) cases under the age of five with 77 related deaths have been reported from Banadir Hospital in Mogadishu. Children under the age of two bear the greatest burden of AWD accounting for 59 percent of all reported cases. Based on data collected, women and girls account for 46 percent of all AWD reported cases at the hospital. In Lower Shabelle region, the number of AWD cases tends to increase during the reporting period. MCH services in Warsheikh, Middle Shabelle region reported some 36 AWD cases including four children under the age of five and 10 deaths of whom three were under five years. WHO and partners are closely monitoring trends of communicable diseases, especially AWD in light of the end of the dry season. In Hudur, Bakool region, there are reports of an unclassified disease that has affected over 90 people with 53 deaths. Signs and symptoms of the cases include fever for one to two months, a high pulse rate, occasionally sore throat, progressive swelling of joints and limbs including pains. It is observed that patients either recover slowly or die. Retrospective data collected indicates that the case fatality rate is a major concern. WHO has dispatched additional supplies including antibiotic syrups and tablets to Hudur to support the mobile clinic in the affected villages for a period of one month. On 14 and 15 May 2011, WHO in collaboration with Puntland and Galmudug ministries of health trained more than 40 health workers on AWD/cholera prevention, case detection and management. The health workers are from nine districts of Galgaduud and Mudug and are now fully skilled to assist an estimated population of 780,000 people. Water Sanitation and Hygiene On 14 May 2011, DRC completed construction/rehabilitation of under ground water reservoirs (Berkads) in Heylan Village of Baran district in Eastern Sanaag region. The water reservoirs will benefit about 200 households in the village. DRC also completed the construction of five latrines in this village. The organization has now commenced the construction of some eight latrines in Ugbad IDP settlement in Bossaso that is expected to benefit 32 households.

    ANNUAL REPORT OF THE RESIDENT/HUMANITARIAN COORDINATOR ON THE USE OF CERF GRANTS Country Somalia Resident/ Humanitarian Coordinator Mark Bowden Reporting Period January – December 2008 I. Executive Summary The humanitarian situation in Somalia, one of the least developed countries in the world, deteriorated considerably during the reporting period due to the combination of soaring food prices, a significantly devalued Somali shilling, worsening security conditions, and a deepening drought following multiple abnormally harsh dry seasons and a poor seasonal rains in 2008. Meanwhile, the civil strife brought the country to the levels of insecurity and limited access to a degree unseen since the height of the conflict at the beginning of the nineties. Since Somalia is a traditional importer of food, importing roughly 60 percent of the country’s food needs, it was particularly badly affected by soaring food prices. The prices of both imported and locally produced food items increased up to 700 percent during the year as the Somali Shilling decreased in value by some 125 percent. In 2008, the Somalia Food Security and Analysis Unit (FSAU), which provides the guiding common assessment for humanitarian partners in Somalia, reported that, for the first time, an estimated 600,000 urban poor living in main towns and rural settlements were facing conditions of Acute Food and Livelihood Crisis (AFLC) and Humanitarian Emergency (HE), as they struggled to cope with sky-rocketing food and basic commodity prices. As a result, the estimated number of people in need of assistance reached 3.2 million, an increase of more than 80 percent since January 2008 (up from 1.8 million).

Box: 63565 - Nairobi, Kenya - [email protected] - T: +254 20 7623197/8/9 and +254 20 7622840 Emergency Humanitarian Action Weekly Highlights 6 – 12 August 2011 BULLETIN HIGHLIGHTS • Alarming rates of confirmed cholera cases among IDPs have been reported in Mogadishu. Out of the 30 stool samples collected last week, 18 have tested positive for Vibrio cholera serotype ‘inaba’. • Several AWD cases, mainly IDPs, have been reported from Kismayo with at least 40 cases and 4 deaths. WHO has sent medical supplies that are adequate to treat up to 20 severe adults or 50 children and over 100 moderate cases. Update on major public health concerns: • Trends of acute watery diarrhoea (AWD)/cholera The cholera transmission season is ongoing. Some areas have received sporadic rains, posing a high risk for transmission of waterborne diseases, such as AWD. Communities tend to use contami- nated water for domestic use, hence the high risk for sporadic outbreaks. Multiple rumors are cur- rently being investigated. Confirmed cholera outbreaks are ongoing in Mogadishu (Banadir region), the Afgooye corridor, Baidoa (Bay region), Xarardere, Bursalah, Godldogob, and Hobyo district (Mudug region), Awdhegle and Wanlaweyne district (Lower Shabelle region). Confirmed measles and dengue fever cases have been identified in Mogadishu (Banadir region). Dengue fever is con- firmed in Galbeed region of Somaliland. The cholera outbreak in Baidoa is considered under control. Graph 1.

  • Nutrition Update
    Monthly \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\FSAU Food Security Analysis Unit - Somalia NUTRITION UPDATE JUNE 2006 Overview The nutrition situation in most parts of Southern Somalia remains critical1. In this month’s Bay 1 issue of the Nutrition Update, we present findings from sentinel sites in Bay, Bakool, Gedo Bakool 2 and Galgadud which continue to indicate a persistently poor nutrition situation; and areas in Gedo 2 Hiran 3 the Middle Shabelle and Hiran with typical levels. Galgadud 3 Middle Shabelle 4 Detailed data on sentinel sites is available at the FSAU. Hiran 4 Bay – Poor nutrition situation persists In April/May 2006, FSAU conducted the fifth round of sentinel sites surveillance in fifteen sites in Bay region. Heavy rainfall at the time of data collection made the roads to Kanaanax site inaccessible. Data from these sites indicate a high proportion of malnourished children. The nutrition trend improved in one site (Dharqo) only (see charts2).Data from Berdale SFP show increased admissions in April and May 2006. In most sites, over 40% of the households consumed a poorly diversified diet comprising three or fewer food groups (mainly cereal, sugar and oil). Nevertheless, the proportion of households consuming diversified diets was higher in Dharqo, Dureemed, Madoy and Gurban sites. Previous studies have indicated a relationship between malnutrition and poorly diversified diet. Whereas in normal times household crop production and livestock products are the main sources of food, the majority of the households currently access food mainly through purchase and humanitarian assistance. This is attributed to nearly collapsed livelihoods following poor crop harvests and livestock deaths (as a result of prolonged drought in the preceding years).

  • SOMALIA Humanitarian Dashboard - November 2020 As of 21 December 2020
    SOMALIA Humanitarian Dashboard - November 2020 As of 21 December 2020 SITUATION OVERVIEW ¹ Cyclone Gati, which is believed to be the strongest storm ever on record in Somalia, made a landfall at the north tip of north east Puntland on 22 November, affecting 120,000 people of whom 42,100 people were temporarily displaced. Those displaced have since returned to their homes and settlements. Humanitarian partners have scaled up assistance to people affected by Cyclone Gati in Bari region of Puntland. As of 8 December, over 78,000 affected people are receiving some form of humanitarian assistance. The desert locust upsurge that began in late 2019 continued into 2020, affecting around 685,000 persons countrywide. Crop and pasture production is estimated to be 10 to 15 per cent lower than the long-term average owing to the impact of desert locusts in riverine areas and northern Bay, Bakool, agropastoral livelihood zones, where crisis-level food insecurity (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification Phase 3) persist. Immature swarms continue to form within a large area of breeding in central Somalia. Although intensive ground and aerial control operations are in progress, a substantial number of hoppers bands are present and fledging to form new immature swarms. These swarms are expected to move south. Breeding is in progress in northern Somalia because of favourable conditions that developed from the heavy rains brought by cyclone Gati last in November. Substantial hatching and band formation are expected on the northwest coast, on the northern plateau and in the northeast during the coming weeks. Ground and aerial control operations continue.

    Issue # 26 2-9 July 2010 Key Overall Developments Conflict and Displacement Mogadishu During the reporting week, heavy fighting continued in the northern part of Mogadishu killing at least 60 people and wounding more than 120 others, the majority were women and children. Reports from one of the main hospitals in Mogadishu indicate that between 1-2 July, 42 people were admitted suffering from blast injuries, including 23 women and children under 14 years. Since the beginning of the year, 450 women and children have been admitted to the hospital with weapon related injuries, an indication of the high price civilians are paying in the ongoing conflict. Other hospitals and health centres in Mogadishu are also reporting increased consultations, treatment and admission of casualties. The daily violence and human rights abuses in Somalia continue to displace thousands of civilians with an estimated 200,000 people having been forced to leave their homes this year alone. Populations in conflict-affected neighbourhoods in Mogadishu are moving to relatively calmer parts of the city seeking refuge in host communities or joining already existing IDP settlements. Since 1 July, UNHCR reports that 9,600 people were displaced from Mogadishu including 5,100 who moved out of the city while 4,600 moved to relatively calmer districts within the city. Incident involving humanitarian workers On 5 July, three NGO staff and a driver were taken by armed men to a district police station in Mogadishu and later released after five hours. The reason for their detention is unknown. WFP conducts a monitoring mission During the reporting week, two teams of WFP field monitors travelled to Cadaado and Dhuusamarreeb districts of Galgaduud region to undertake food distribution monitoring for the first time since February this year.
