  • United Nations Nations Unies
    UNITED NATIONS NATIONS UNIES HUMANITARIAN SITUATION IN SOMALIA Monthly Analysis October 2005 This report was written in cooperation with the UN Agencies in Somalia OVERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS Sea piracy continues to be rife off the coast of Southern Somalia affecting commercial as well as humanitarian activities. A second Kenyan vessel carrying WFP food aid was hijacked on 12 October in the port of Merka and released two days later. The second food aid cargo to be hijacked in four months, WFP is looking to find alternative routes to bring food stocks into Somalia, including overland from Kenya and through Djibouti. The temporary halt of ocean transport is also impacting on the availability of fuel in south Somali, affecting flights and humanitarian access into Somalia. Alternate supply avenues are being explored. Meanwhile, activities by extremist groups in Somalia are becoming a growing concern and could well become an increasing challenge in terms of UN aid operations and access throughout the country. October started bleakly in terms of security with the brutal assassination of the UNDSS national security officer on 3 October in Kismayo. The assassination put an abrupt end to the just prior resumption of UN presence in the area and an opportunity for renewed access in the Lower Juba valley. Delayed and below normal 2005 Deyr rains in southern Somalia are causing increased concern. Patchy rainfall has been received in certain regions, however low rainfall in areas of Gedo, Middle and Lower Juba is causing a severe shortage of water affecting rangeland and livestock. Should the trend continue, and given the severe 2005 Gu crop losses, there will be major implications for food security in southern Somalia.

Despite the success of SELIP II in responding to humanitarian needs of conflict and climate-affected populations across Somalia, in early 2017 the country experienced severe drought conditions that continued to worsen throughout the year, and Mercy Corps requested an addition budget of $4,000,000 in cost extension. This enabled Mercy Corps to support the disaster-affected communities and families with critical and immediate water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) needs/services, expanded economic recovery and market systems (ERMS) support, and targeted agriculture and food security activities in the South Central Somalia regions of Galmudug, Lower and Middle Shabelle, Banadir, and Lower Juba as well as in new drought-affected areas in Gedo and Baidoa (IDP camps).
