Back ground

The Somali region has a long history of clan, resource-based and regional conflict, remaining relatively underdeveloped when compared to the other regions of Ethiopia.Experiences recurrent droughtsFloods, disease outbreaks, acute malnutrition & displacement.

1

Highlight of Current Humanitarian Situation

Serious drought that caused massive irregular migrations.Influx of Large livestock population from the Neighboring Somalia and Northern Keonya.Critical water shortage for both people and livestock.

High IDPs and returnees with little responseAWD outbreak in Hudet Woreda

Access roads to deliver humanitarian assistance

2

Conditions After the rains

Conditions have worsened for many IDPs who were leaving in Temporary shelters.Delay in Delivery of food supplies for areas with allocations.Road accessibilities further worsened. Prices of essential commodities will increase as supplies fail to reach the local markets.Absence of cash transfers for poor HHs in host community and IDPs

Improve water availability

3

WASH

Filtu Water supply system is non-functional to ensure safe drinking water for the population. Moyale town water supply system is non-functional. AWD cases are reported in neighboring woreda of Hudet.The rains have destroyed toilets in

Dollo Ado woreda during the week ( 1500 as per DPPB).Carcases

of dead animals will be washed to open water harvesting structures common across the southern zones

4

Clusters

Shortage of essential supplies across the zonesResponse gaps in all clusters that need to be reviewed to accommodate ground changes due to the rains ( positive and negative aspect)Need for integrated livelihood activities led by respective cluster leads

5

Agriculture & Livestock

There are reports of high number of livestock death due poor livestock body condition.

Opportunistic diseases is being reported

Main Challenges

Poor road infrastructure to facilitate timely delivery of essential supplies when available.The Road linking Liban to Dawa through Galuun Bridge is closed due to the rain.Insecurity for some essential roads.Malka Willa Bridge and road conditionAirstrip HudetAbsence of Supply Hub in Filtu to support response

Network problemAbsence of Durable solutions for IDPs

13

Way forward

Regular cluster based zonal monthly meetings Strengthen partners coordination for improved joint planning & responseWork on woreda specific durable solutions Invest in rain water harvesting structures within rainy season.Water well drilling in 8 hot spot sites where geological survey was completed

Support completion of Air strip in Hudet woreda. The woreda

is hot spot for AWD
