Conflict has severely disrupted trade, humanitarian access, and livelihoods. Very poor macroeconomic conditions constrain household market access.
ICRC has suspended their operations in Leer following an uptick in fighting across central Unity State.
Boko Haram attacks continue in the northeast, and the ongoing conflict will likely severely limit area cultivated during the 2018 main season. Nearly 1.9 million people are currently displaced.
The number of conflict-related deaths in 2018 through May was more than 2,600 people, and 768 more deaths than the same period of 2017, representing a 40 percent increase in conflict fatalities.
The extensive conflict has reduced incomes, and food prices remain elevated. Food access is inadequate for many poor households.
On May 26, the port of Al Hudaydah received the first shipment of containerized cargo to be delivered since November 2017.
Severe drought over the past year has resulted in very large livestock losses in Ethiopia’s Somali Region, which has sharply reduced household food and income access.
More than 50,000 households in Ethiopia have been displaced by flooding since the beginning of 2018.

Four consecutive poor rainy seasons that have led to severe drought in some areas and, consequently, large-scale livestock losses and poor production. Furthermore, the April to June 2018 Gu season is forecast to be below average.
Heavy rainfall and flooding in northwestern Somalia, driven by Cyclone Sagar, displaced an estimated 27,000 people.
Ongoing conflicts in the Kasai region, North Kivu, South Kivu, Ituri, and Tanganyika Provinces have caused ongoing displacement and affected households’ abilities to access their livelihoods.
The recent intensification in violent events in Eastern DRC is raising increased concerns about stability in the region.
Conflict has expanded in recent years, with more than 1.1 million people displaced since the beginning of 2016. Drought in the north and northwest will reduce yields for 2018 main season wheat and other crops. Rangeland conditions are also very poor in some of these areas.
Remote sensing data indicates that rangeland conditions in parts of the northwest are the worst on record for early May, with data since 2002.
Poorly distributed rains and drought conditions will lead to production losses during the main harvest for smallholders in parts of Malawi, Mozambique, Madagascar and Zimbabwe.
In Mozambique, a recent assessment determined that in remote southern areas there was either no main season harvest or significantly below average crop yields.
