Areas of Highest Concern
Conflict has severely disrupted trade, humanitarian access, and livelihoods. Very poor macroeconomic conditions constrain household market access.
Rapid Response Missions have returned to central Unity and humanitarian assistance is being delivered.
The extensive conflict has reduced incomes, and food prices remain elevated. Food access is inadequate for many poor households.
Conflict in and around Al Hudaydah City has escalated during the past two weeks, following international calls for an end to the conflict.
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.
According to IOM, 3,110 arrivals and 856 departures have been counted between November 5 and 11 in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe states.
Drought negatively affected 2017/2018 rainfed wheat yields and pastoral conditions. Furthermore, prolonged conflict continues to disrupt livelihoods and lead to displacement.
The security situation in Ghazni has improved, although an estimated 500-600 families remain displaced.
Other Areas of Concern
Ongoing conflicts in the Kasai region, North Kivu, South Kivu, Ituri, Maniema, and Tanganyika Provinces have caused continuing displacement and affected households’ abilities to access typical livelihood activities.
The Ebola outbreak in North Kivu and Ituri provinces that has killed 241 people since August 2018, is set to become the second largest in the country’s history.
Consecutive years of below-average rainfall in the South have reduced agricultural production and household incomes.
Poor rainfall in the far south and southwest during the 2017/2018 rainy season led to below-average harvests and in some cases complete failure.
The 2018 Deyr/short rains season is well below average across much of the region. Although the 2018 Gu/Genna/long rains season was one of the wettest on record, many pastoralists are still recovering from the effects of the 2016/2017 drought.
Seasonal rainfall performance from October to December is significantly below average, leading to crop production shortfalls and accelerated pasture and water depletion.
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.
Poorly distributed rainfall through mid-November and anomalously high temperatures has resulted in abnormal dryness for the start of season.
