In general, safe and sufficient water supply, agriculture and electrical power are at stake, while food security and households' income are also at risk in the most vulnerable areas. Long-term records show that the entire area receives no meaningful precipitation between June and October, with very little variation around this figure. As a result, the accumulated deficit up to May 2021 will persist until the end of the year, potentially worsening and spreading drought impacts throughout the region in the coming months.   FR-2021-000088-IRQ Fire Iraq A fire broke out in the coronavirus ward of Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital in the southern city of Nasiriyah in southern Iraq has killed at least 92 people, injured more than 110, left 20 missing, and affected around 270 others, according to health officials, on Tuesday the 13th of July.  FF-2021-000087-KGZ Flash Flood Kyrgyzstan The flood and mudflows hit in the Suzak district of Jalal-Abad region due to heavy rain.  CE-2021-000086-ZAF Complex Emergency South Africa Urban violence which commenced in South Africa from 9 to 17 July 2021, in response to the arrest of former President Jacob Zuma. The riots triggered wider rioting and looting fuelled by job layoffs and economic inequality worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic. The civil unrest began in the province of KwaZulu-Natal on the evening of 9 July, and spread to the province of Gauteng on the evening of 11 July 2021. As of 16 July, 212 people had died in the unrest and 2,554 had been arrested.   DR-2021-000085-KAZ Drought Kazakhstan In the Republic of Kazakhstan, the heatwave that began in June 2021 in the Southern and Western regions of the country (Kyzylorda, Mangystau and Turkestan regions) led to record temperatures up to 46.5℃ (recorded on July 7) in the region with a norm of 28.3℃. This has seriously affected the main livestock farms. According to the local meteorological service "Kazhydromet", the removal of hot and dry air masses from the region of Iran preserves abnormally hot weather on the territory of most of the Republic of Kazakhstan. As a result of the abnormally high air temperature in various regions of the country, rapid runoff of rivers and reservoirs occurs. Also, the soil dries up to a depth of 50 cm, which caused the lack of vegetation and natural feed on pastures. Based on the impossibility of grazing livestock, the minimum reserves of feed and drink are exhausted, which leads to mass death. To date, the death of more than 2000 units of livestock has been recorded (in these regions) and this figure is increasing every day. In addition to the mass death of livestock, crops and agricultural crops are also being actively destroyed, which can potentially lead to a major food crisis in several regions of the country, where cattle are a key object of vital activity due to the geographical and climatic features of the southern and western regions of Kazakhstan. The death of livestock and agricultural crops in the three regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan (Mangistau, Kyzylorda and Turkestan regions) causes serious damage to the local population, since it is the only source of income and vital activity.  FL-2021-000084-TCD Flood Chad On 26 June, the sub-prefectures of Bologo and Dafra, in western Tandjilé, were severely hit by torrential rains: 231 people were wounded and five killed, 4,413 houses were destroyed, 31 schools and health centers were either totally or partially washed away, and 560 animals went missing.

Official data sources indicate that the unprecedented effect of COVID-19 on global mobility has not halted migration flows through the three northward trans-Mediterranean routes (Eastern, Central and Western Mediterranean), nor the Atlantic route from West Africa to the Canary Islands. The central Mediterranean route, from North Africa (primarily Libya but also Tunisia and Algeria) to Italy which continues to be one of the most active and dangerous routes for people crossing to Europe by sea. Since 2014, the Central Mediterranean has become the world’s deadliest migratory sea routes with over 35,000 lives lost in the past seven years (IOM, 2021). In 2020, 983 people lost their lives on the Central Mediterranean route and in the first six months of 2021 that figures stands at 677 lives lost (IOM, 2021). The actual number of fatalities recorded on migratory routes is in all likelihood much higher largely due to unreported and “invisible” shipwrecks.  OT-2021-000076-LTU Other Lithuania [Population movement] Since mid-May 2021, the number of people who enter Lithuania illegally from Belarus has been increasing rapidly.

A historic heat wave also developed for many days across the Pacific Northwest shattering numerous all-time high temperature records across the region. This prolonged heat dome was maximized over the states of Oregon and Washington and extended well into Canada. These extreme temperatures impacted several major cities and millions of people. For example, Portland reached a high of 116 degrees F while Seattle reached 108 degrees F. These extreme temperatures caused hundreds of direct and indirect heat-related fatalities across Oregon and Washington, not including excess mortality that may be hundreds of additional deaths. This combined drought and heat rapidly dried out vegetation across the West, impacting agriculture. Low water levels also forced the hydroelectric power plant at Lake Oroville in California to shut down for the first time since it opened in 1967.
