Thousands of them continue to pour across the border to north-eastern of Kenya into the largest refugee complex in the world (Dadaab).

Disaster New Zealand On Wednesday, a stranded cargo ship, the Rena, had run aground after an oil spill on the Astrolable Reef off port Tarunga, New Zealand. The Maritime New Zealand estimates 350 tonnes of oil leaked from the Rena, and it is believed the ship had 1,900 tonnes of oil and diesel on-board. Despite an International salvage response to refloat the vessel the situation has worsened over the past few days due to the adverse weather conditions. The Rena has suffered substantial structure failure, with cracks appearing in the hull. This has been caused by the movement of the vessel as the stern, which has remained afloat, shifting with the waves, while the front part of the ship remains stuck on the reef. Urgent aerial surveillance is required. Current weather conditions are hampering such operations. Suitable EOS applications are now required to assist in the detection of pollution. The owners of the ship are making every effort to minimise any further damages to the environment. International Disaster Charter (IDC) has been triggered by this event.  TC-2011-000157-CRI Tropical Cyclone Costa Rica Similarly to many other countries in Central America, Costa Rica has been affected by the intense rainfall brought by Tropical Depression 12-E (TD 12-E).
