OT-2012-000029-BFA Other Burkina Faso The conflict which forced many people to leave Northern Mali to Burkina Faso has further weakened the region that has been facing the risk of food insecurity. The situation has plunged the people into destitution and deprivation which exposes them to all kinds of risks including diseases the spread of which is facilitated by poor hygiene and sanitation conditions. The upheaval, its attendant trauma coupled with lack of basic amenities and facilities is not helping the affected population. The number of refugees now stands at 12,297 located in municipalities of Tin Akoff, in the province of Inabao Deou in Oudalan, Gandafabou, Mentao and Soum.

OT-2012-000024-MRT Other Mauritania Following the armed conflict in the northern part of Mali, the refugees fleeing Mali entered Mauritania, mainly Fassala in the district of Bassikounou located in the far South-East. More than 11,000 people have already crossed the border in Mauritania. With the poor rainfall registered in 2011, the Hodh Chargui region (where Fassala is located) is already facing an alarming nutrition crisis. The arrival of the Malian refugees constitutes an additional pressure on the poor resources, and this situation deeply weakens an already desperate humanitarian context for both the refugees and the host communities. Therefore, the arrival of these Malian refugees aggravates this gloomy picture.
