Final Report (MDRSD028)","description":"Country: Sudan Source: International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies Please refer to the attached file. A. SITUATION ANALYSIS Description of the crisis The combination of the heavy rains, flash floods, and swollen rivers in 2020 caused widespread destruction of infrastructure, health facilities, houses, private and public buildings, and agricultural lands and affected close to 900,000 people in 18 states nationwide. The torrential rain and flooding were the worst recorded in the country in 30 years. The most affected states included Blue Nile, Jezira, Khartoum, North Darfur, Red Sea, Sennar, and West Darfur, and accounted for most of the people affected. Many displaced persons were hosted by family members, neighbours, schools and public facilities or moved to temporary camps. Between July and October 2021, heavy rains and flooding affected an additional 92,100 people across 12 states, according to the Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC). More than 13,042 homes were damaged, and over 5,000 homes were destroyed. Most families affected by the heavy rain and flooding were forced to seek shelter with relatives and government-owned buildings. As a result of the floods, the health situation in Sudan deteriorated following the 2020 and 2021 flooding, as stagnant and contaminated water posed health risks. In many of the flooded locations, access to clean water was limited. The water supply from boreholes was affected by overflow from rivers while latrines were destroyed, thereby increasing the risk of water contamination and water-borne outbreaks. The destruction and flooding of latrines led to open defecation and water contamination. Damage to health clinics, hospitals, and latrines elevated the risk of disease outbreaks and exerted pressure on weakened health systems. Diarrhoea, malaria, and skin infections were the leading causes of mortality among children, while malaria cases were mostly reported among adults. In 2020, Sudan was confronted with Viral Haemorrhagic Fever (VHFs), polio outbreak, and Leishmaniasis (Kalazar)1 in Gedarif state. This was in addition to the annual cycles of endemic cholera, malaria, dengue, and chikungunya. Sudan continued to face the health and socio-economic consequences of COVID-19. As of 1 February 2022, 58,208 people had tested positive for COVID-19, with 3,442 deaths. The COVID-19 Case Fatality Rate was among the highest in the world. The decline in the economy had severely affected the provision of basic services, including health services, with only 15% of essential drugs available in the country. Impact of the Floods in 2022 In July 2022, heavy and continuous rains were experienced in several states of Sudan. Flash floods led to widespread destruction of houses and infrastructure and the displacement of thousands of people. From 9 July 2022 to the end of August 2022, the worst-hit states were; Kassala, Khartoum, River Nile, South Kordofan, South Darfur, East . Darfur, Gezira, Gedarif, Northern State, White Nile, West Kordofan, Sennar, and North Kordofan. According to the Civil Defense, Ministry of Health, and Humanitarian Aid Commission, over 100 people lost their lives as of September 2022. Thousands of acres of non-agricultural and agricultural land were submerged, including the second largest irrigation area in Sudan, Al Managil in Gezira State. As a result, it was expected to lead to food shortages, further aggravating the situation in the food-insecure Sudan. Sudan Red Crescent (SRCS) State branches reported approximately 352,171 people (57,117 households) were affected. An estimated 65,346 homes were also affected (32,216 destroyed and 33,130 partially destroyed). 2,683 public utilities and 10,271 latrines were destroyed. Out of the total population affected, 96,000 were identified as needing urgent humanitarian assistance, including basic needs, shelter materials and household kits. In addition, there was an urgent need for food, clean drinking water, health care services, first aid and psychosocial support, water, sanitation, and hygiene promotion. As of July 2022, heavy and continuous rains were experienced in several states of Sudan. Flash floods led to widespread destruction of houses and infrastructure and the displacement of thousands of people. From 09 July to the end of August 2022, floods affected the states of Kassala, Khartoum, River Nile, South Kordofan, South Darfur, East Darfur, Gezira, Gedarif, Northern State, White Nile, West Kordofan, Sennar, and North Kordofan resulting in losses of high magnitude.","content":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PAID PLANS","keywords":null,"creator":null,"language":"english","country":["sudan","ukraine","pakistan","yemen","somalia","nigeria","haiti","afghanistan","ethiopia","syria","myanmar"],"category":["top","environment"],"datatype":"news","pubDate":"2026-03-25 23:31:45","pubDateTZ":"UTC","fetched_at":"2026-03-25 23:41:58","image_url":"https://reliefweb.int/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/previews/2a/47/2a4749fd-9e80-4861-acc2-9780c92c4469.png","video_url":null,"source_id":"reliefweb","source_name":"Reliefweb","source_priority":6281,"source_url":"https://reliefweb.int","source_icon":"https://n.bytvi.com/reliefweb.jpg","sentiment":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PROFESSIONAL AND CORPORATE PLANS","sentiment_stats":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PROFESSIONAL AND CORPORATE PLANS","ai_tag":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PROFESSIONAL AND CORPORATE PLANS","ai_region":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN CORPORATE PLANS","ai_org":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN CORPORATE PLANS","ai_summary":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PAID PLANS","duplicate":false}, {"article_id":"84aeb3fb4826d07f41077ce52705aac6","link":"https://reliefweb.int/report/democratic-republic-congo/democratic-republic-congo-population-movement-operation-update-6-mdrcd043","title":"DR Congo: Democratic Republic of Congo | Population Movement - Operation Update #6 (MDRCD043)","description":"Country: Democratic Republic of the Congo Source: International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies Please refer to the attached file. A. SITUATION ANALYSIS Description of the crisis Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) continues to face one of the world’s most complex and protracted humanitarian crises, driven by conflict, displacement, and recurrent natural hazards. More than 5.2 million internally displaced people are concentrated in North Kivu, South Kivu, and Ituri, with 96% displaced due to armed violence. These provinces, historically marked by weak governance, chronic poverty, and limited access to services, are also rich in minerals, making them hotspots for contestation and insecurity. Since 2024, conflict between FARDC/Wazalendo forces and the M23 armed group has sharply intensified. The situation deteriorated further from August 2024, particularly following M23's advance through Lubero and towards southern North Kivu. Major urban centers including Goma, Butembo, Minova and Sake have experienced repeated waves of violence and mass population movements. The fall of Goma in January 2025 triggered an exodus of hundreds of thousands, the closure of displacement sites, and premature, unsafe returns in surrounding territories. The crisis is now characterized by simultaneous mass displacement and forced or premature returns, particularly in Masisi, Rutshuru, Kalehe, Minova, and Uvira. Many families return to destroyed homes, looted villages, or contested land, with over 60% living in damaged shelters and more than one-third facing land access challenges (IFRC, Oct. 2025). Communities returning to insecure environments face heightened risks of gender-based violence, forced recruitment, extortion, and exploitation. Women-headed households, representing nearly half of returnees, are disproportionately affected due to limited access to land, credit, and livelihood opportunities. These trends are straining host communities already challenged by poverty, food insecurity, and limited infrastructure. Rising tensions over land, water points, and aid further threaten social cohesion. Recent Escalation and Key Events - August – October 2024: Ceasefire agreements between DRC and Rwanda (Luanda, July 2024) fail to hold as clashes continue. - January 2025: Fighting escalates in Goma’s outskirts, culminating in a full-scale assault on the city. - January 25, 2025: M23 seizes large parts of Goma, including the airport, triggering mass displacement. - January 29, 2025: Goma falls completely under M23 control, marking the beginning of their advance towards South Kivu. - February 2025: WHO reports 3,082 injured civilians, with 843 deaths in medical facilities since late February. The total casualty count since March 2024 stands at 6,151. - By June 2025: Over 1.03 million IDPs and 2.01 million returnees were recorded in North Kivu. Fighting in Rutshuru, Masisi, Lubero and Walikale caused repeated new displacements, with 61 civilians killed and more than 766 houses burned in Bwito alone. Attacks by ADF in Lubero killed 35 civilians in June, while Goma and Nyiragongo reported over 6,300 cases of Mpox (OCHA, June 2025). - August 2025: North Kivu and South Kivu provinces continued to face major security challenges. Repeated attacks by ADF in North Kivu, combined with the war waged by the Congo River Alliance / M23 (AFC/M23) in both provinces, further undermined civilian security. Nearly 138,000 people were newly displaced in Masisi, resulting in 1,335 documented violations and abuses (Protection Cluster, Sept. 2025). - In Ituri: Violence surged in July–August 2025, displacing over 122,000 people in Djugu and 50,000 in Irumu. By end of August, Djugu hosted 623,000 IDPs and Irumu nearly 191,000 (OCHA, Aug 2025). - Late 2025 – South Kivu (Uvira): The advance and takeover of Uvira by the AFC/M23 marked a major expansion of the conflict into a strategic urban and cross-border hub. According to preliminary inter-cluster estimates, close to 600,000 people were displaced or affected by population movements linked to the Uvira crisis, including large-scale new and secondary displacement across Uvira, Ruzizi, and Fizi territories. Movements included intra-urban displacement, displacement towards surrounding rural areas and neighbouring territories, as well as limited cross-border movements. Since early 2025, hostilities have reached unprecedented levels, directly impacting urban centres such as Goma, Sake, Minova, and Uvira, where thousands of families have fled multiple times. The fall of Goma and the subsequent expansion of the conflict into South Kivu resulted not only in new displacements but also in premature and unsafe returns, as communities sought refuge in partially secured zones. Assessments conducted by the DRC Red Cross and the IFRC (May–June 2025) confirm that more than 40% of returnees had no access to basic shelter, while 28% were living in schools or public buildings, highlighting the growing overlap between displacement and return dynamics. RDC – Key humanitarian and political highlights (March – September 2025) • March 2025: The fall of Goma confirmed, leading to massive displacement towards South Kivu. • April 2025: Fighting intensified in Masisi and Rutshuru; displacement camps around Goma emptied. • May 2025: Floods and landslides in Kalehe worsened the humanitarian crisis. • June 2025: More than one million IDPs registered and a surge of Mpox (>6,300 cases) reported in Goma/Nyiragongo. • July 2025: Massive displacements in Ituri and severe human rights violations in North Kivu. • August 2025: Nearly 138,000 new displacements and 1,335 protection violations reported in Masisi. • September 2025: Prolonged displacement saturating South Kivu; humanitarian funding remains insufficient. • From September 2025: AFC/M23 authorities refuse to recognize official travel documents issued by Kinshasa, further restricting population movements and access to services. In parallel to these events, localized peace initiatives and humanitarian access negotiations have been attempted but remain fragile. Insecurity persists along key transport corridors, disrupting supply chains and access to humanitarian assistance. Despite sporadic returns, most families lack the means to rebuild livelihoods or restore their assets, leading to cyclical displacement and heightened dependency on aid. Furthermore, there is a steady deterioration of living conditions in both displacement and return areas. Market disruptions, inflation, and currency fluctuations have drastically reduced purchasing power. The average price of staple foods such as cassava and beans has increased by over 40% since early 2025, aggravating food insecurity among returnees, IDPs, and host communities. The combined effects of economic decline, insecurity, and climatic shocks continue to undermine local coping capacities and impede durable solutions.","content":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PAID PLANS","keywords":null,"creator":null,"language":"english","country":["sudan","ukraine","pakistan","yemen","somalia","nigeria","haiti","afghanistan","ethiopia","syria","myanmar"],"category":["top"],"datatype":"news","pubDate":"2026-03-25 23:27:21","pubDateTZ":"UTC","fetched_at":"2026-03-25 23:41:58","image_url":"https://reliefweb.int/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/previews/14/05/14053b1a-c368-46cd-b4ec-7845450389fe.png","video_url":null,"source_id":"reliefweb","source_name":"Reliefweb","source_priority":6281,"source_url":"https://reliefweb.int","source_icon":"https://n.bytvi.com/reliefweb.jpg","sentiment":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PROFESSIONAL AND CORPORATE PLANS","sentiment_stats":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PROFESSIONAL AND CORPORATE PLANS","ai_tag":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PROFESSIONAL AND CORPORATE PLANS","ai_region":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN CORPORATE PLANS","ai_org":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN CORPORATE PLANS","ai_summary":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PAID PLANS","duplicate":false}, {"article_id":"8e19695767ee022587b6263fc6fef529","link":"https://reliefweb.int/report/bolivia-plurinational-state/bolivia-wildfires-dref-operational-update-mdrbo019","title":"Bolivia: Wildfires - DREF Operational Update (MDRBO019)","description":"Country: Bolivia (Plurinational State of) Source: International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies Please refer to the attached file. Description of the Event Date of event 25-08-2025 What happened, where and when? Bolivia entered its seasonal dry period between June and September, a stage characterized by a sustained increase in wildfire risk, particularly in the Amazonian and eastern regions. This risk is exacerbated by slash and burn agricultural practices used to prepare soils for planting, which, under conditions of high temperatures, lack of rainfall, strong winds, and extremely dry soils, often become uncontrolled and lead to large scale fires. Within this context, and under Supreme Decree No. 5447, the national government declared a state of emergency on 20 August 2025, identifying the departments of Santa Cruz and Beni as the most affected. Days later, on 25 August, the government convened representatives of the diplomatic corps and international organizations to request support for the response, including equipment, humanitarian assistance, and technical capacity strengthening. As of 31 August, three alerts remained active—two orange alerts and one wind alert—covering more than 160 municipalities, while 855 heat sources were reported, mainly in Santa Cruz (661) and Beni (111). Among the most severe events were the fire recorded in Noel Kempff Mercado National Park (Santa Cruz) and a large scale fire in Carrasco National Park (Cochabamba), which was brought under control after five days of coordinated operations between firefighters and local communities. This scenario unfolded in parallel with the country’s presidential electoral process, in its runoff phase, adding institutional complexity to decision making and operational coordination. By 25 September 2025, according to GWIS, Bolivia had registered 3,713 wildfires and 1,759,931 hectares affected, 30% of which corresponded to protected forest areas. Santa Cruz and Beni continued to be the most impacted departments. During September, Santa Cruz declared a departmental emergency due to the combined effects of strong winds, drought, and wildfires, which affected communities, livelihoods, and ecosystems; the declaration will remain in effect until 31 December. Between 10 and 27 September, municipal COEMs were activated, red alerts were issued for 18 municipalities, and extreme temperatures of up to 44°C were recorded. By hat date, Santa Cruz reported 22 active fires and more than 127,000 hectares affected, particularly in the Noel Kempff area. Between 500 and 600 firefighters were deployed across the department, most of them trained volunteers from the Governor’s Office and allied organizations. Meanwhile, in Guayaramerín and across the department of Beni, the national declaration sought to activate mechanisms to strengthen departmental and municipal systems. However, unlike Santa Cruz, no local declarations were issued, despite requests for assistance from communities affected by both fires and the cumulative effects of drought. Between September 2025 and February 2026, Bolivia faced a prolonged drought that worsened the situation, generating critical water shortages, contamination of water sources by ash and sediments, increases in diseases such as malaria and gastrointestinal conditions, significant losses of crops and pasturelands, fuel shortages, and logistical difficulties in accessing remote communities. These conditions, confirmed by SENAMHI and the Drought Monitor, significantly increased the social, economic, and health vulnerability of rural and Indigenous families. Within the framework of the DREF, the initial operation focused exclusively on the wildfires included in the national declaration. Between August and September, the Bolivian Red Cross (BRC), with support from the IFRC Rapid Response Operations Manager deployed to Bolivia, carried out field assessments alongside its branches in Santa Cruz, Concepción, San Ignacio de Velasco, and Guayaramerín. For the 18 February update, after completing PTM and Health activities, the operation identified drought as the predominant emerging hazard. Teams carried out visits and community dialogues in the most affected areas of the Chiquitanía—including Santa Cruz, Concepción, and San Ignacio—and in multiple rural communities of Guayaramerín, such as 18 de Junio, 2 de Octubre, Cachuela Mamoré, 27 de Noviembre, Santa Fe, 14 de Septiembre, and San Francisco. Following the presidential runoff election, assessments continued in other communities among the 19 most affected, confirming the severity of drought related impacts and the persistence of humanitarian needs.","content":"ONLY AVAILABLE IN PAID

Kenya: Govt to Clear Sh116mn Eduafya Claims By May 8 - MoH

Kenya: Govt to Clear Sh116mn Eduafya Claims By May 8 - MoH / 政府、5月8日までにEduAfya未払保険金1億1,600万シリングを精算へ — 保健省 【国名: ケニア】 保健省(MoH)は、解散したEduAfya医療保険制度に係る未払請求金1億1,600万シリングを5月8日までに支払うと発表しました。この支払い決定は、国民健康保険基金(NHIF)から社会健康局(SHA)への移行に伴う事務処理の滞留が原因で発生した債務の清算を目的としており、受益者や医療提供者への直接的な支払い実行を示す重要な措置です。 未払金の解消は医療機関のキャッシュフロー改善や患者へのサービス継続に寄与すると期待されます。特に民間医療機関にとっては短期的な信用リスクの低下と運転資金の回復をもたらし、医療セクターへの投資環境の改善要因となり得ます。ただし、移行期における請求処理の透明性やIT・支払インフラの整備状況によっては、類似の滞留が再発するリスクが残ります。 ケニアは普遍的医療保険(UHC)実現を目指し制度改革を進めており、今回の

Rwanda: Kigali Sees 30 Percent Surge in Bus Passengers After Reforms

Rwanda: Kigali Sees 30 Percent Surge in Bus Passengers After Reforms / ルワンダ:改革でキガリのバス利用者が30%増加 — 都市交通の転換点 【国名: ルワンダ】 ルワンダの首都キガリで実施された公共交通改革により、バス利用者が30%増加したとの報告は、都市モビリティの構造的変化を示しています。キシメンティの商人ジャン・フェイクス・ンドリマナ氏の例に見られるように、これまで自家用車に依存していた市民も、利便性と運賃制度の改善、車両の近代化により公共交通を再評価しています。この変化は渋滞緩和や大気改善につながり、日常の流通と労働移動の効率化が期待されます。 投資家にとって、30%の増加は新たなビジネス機会を示唆します。運行管理や電子チケット、低公害車両の導入、停留所・輸送ハブのインフラ整備などは民間資本を呼び込む分野であり、パブリック・プライベート・パートナーシップ(PPP)による資金調達が進めば投資環境の魅力が高まります。特にナイラゲンゲ地区やムヒマ地区における物流と商業活動の連携は、都市経済成長に寄与す

Rwanda: Central Bank Tightens Oversight, Revokes Seven Lenders

Rwanda: Central Bank Tightens Oversight, Revokes Seven Lenders / ルワンダ中央銀行、監督を強化し7社の免許を取り消す 【国名: ルワンダ】 ルワンダ中央銀行は今年、非預金型金融サービス提供者(NDFSP)7社の営業免許を取り消しました。これは信用市場におけるコンプライアンス強化と監督の厳格化を目的とした措置であり、消費者保護や与信管理の改善を狙っています。対象事業者は預金を受け入れない形で小口融資や決済サービスを提供していたため、短期的には特定のサービス供給に空白が生じる可能性があります。 近年、ルワンダではフィンテックやマイクロファイナンスの急速な拡大とともに規制当局の監督強化が進んでいます。金融包摂とインフラ整備が進む一方で、与信審査や資本基準の不備が問題視されており、今回の免許取消は過去の違反や運営上の脆弱性に対する是正措置と位置づけられます。中小企業や個人向けの短期融資供給は一時的にタイト化する可能性があり、市場参加者は流動性管理の見直しを迫られます。 投資家にとって、中央銀行の厳格な監督姿勢は

Kenya: EBB Air Embraer Aircraft Overruns Runway At Mandera Airstrip, No Casualties Reported / ケニア:EBBエアのエンブラエル機がマンデラ飛行場で滑走路逸脱、死傷者なし 【国名: ケニア】 首都ナイロビ発マンデラ便を運航していたEBBエアのエンブラエル機(登録番号5Y-EBB)がマンデラ飛行場着陸時に滑走路外へ逸脱しました。地元報道によれば死傷者は確認されておらず、乗客乗員に大きな人的被害は出ていません。航空機は現場での確認と初期点検のため一時運航が停止され、ケニア民間航空局(KCAA)が事故原因の調査を開始しています。 今回の事象は地域航空ネットワークとロジスティクスにとって短期的な混乱をもたらす可能性があり、マンデラの地域経済やインフラ整備の脆弱性が改めて浮き彫りになりました。過去からケニア国内の小規模空港では滑走路延長や排水設備、灯火設備の整備が投資課題として指摘されており、今回の事故は旅客信頼や保険料、運航コストに波及する懸念があります。投資環境の観点では、地域路線を抱える航空会
