EP-2007-000142-ETH Epidemic Ethiopia Between 15 April 2006 and 13 May 2007, 76,081 cases of AWD and 863 related deaths were reported. With 30,597, 15,355 and 13,386 cases respectively, Oromia, SNNPR and Amhara are the most affected regions. There is currently an average of 800 to 1,000 cases per week. The WHO AWD update, published on 27 June, states cumulative cases and deaths of 82,956 and 952 respectively. In view of this particularly alarming situation, the government of Ethiopia has requested all humanitarian agencies to fill the gaps and participate in the response by implementing activities in order to mitigate the effect of the AWD outbreak, and in close coordination in order to avoid duplication of efforts.

EP-2007-000140-UGA Epidemic Uganda Uganda's Ministry of Health (MoH) has confirmed an outbreak of Marburg haemorrhagic fever (MHF) in Kitaka goldmine, located in the Kakasi forest reserve, Kamwenge district, western Uganda. Reports from the Ministry indicate that two cases, with one death, were reported on 14 July 2007. The second case is under treatment and close monitoring. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the disease was confirmed by laboratory diagnosis on 30 July 2007. There is fear of at least 47 suspected cases in Kampala as a result of secondary transmission/contact from the first infected person who traveled to Kampala where he was being treated before his death. There are further fears of the potential spread of the disease in Kayunga district since some gold miners from Kitaka traveled back to their homes in Kayunga. This scenario puts the neighbouring districts of Mbarara, Kabarole and Mukono at high risk.

Earthquake,Indonesia: On 15 August 2026 at 05:58 local time (WITA; 14 August 2026, 21:58 UTC), a magnitude Mw 7.7 earthquake struck the Flores Sea off eastern Indonesia. The epicentre was located 68 km NNW of Ende, Flores Island, in East Nusa Tenggara province, at a shallow depth of about 10 km (USGS). Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysical Agency (BMKG) issued a tsunami warning for East Nusa Tenggara, West Nusa Tenggara, South Sulawesi and Southeast Sulawesi; tsunami waves of 19-30 cm were observed. The mainshock was followed by aftershocks of M5.9, M5.6 and M6.1. Very strong shaking was felt by more than 500,000 people on Flores Island.

Earthquake,Colombia: At 07:34 local time (12:34 UTC) on 10 August 2026, an Mww 7.4 earthquake struck western Colombia with its epicentre 5 km east of San José del Palmar in Chocó Department, at a depth of about 107 km (USGS). The event was an intermediate-depth, strike-slip rupture inside the subducting Nazca slab; because of its depth, strong shaking (MMI VI-VII) was spread over a wide area of the Andean Coffee Region rather than concentrated near the epicentre, and about 10.5 million people were exposed to it. The SGC describes it as the largest-magnitude earthquake recorded in Colombia in the past decade. As of 17:00 COT on 10 August the Government reported 111 deaths and 87 injured, more than 1,600 buildings damaged (1,575 homes damaged, 37 destroyed, 61 buildings collapsed), together with damage to 18 health facilities, 52 educational facilities, 18 major roads and six regional airports. The passenger terminal of Matecaña International Airport in Pereira partially collapsed, a tower of the neo-Gothic cathedral in Manizales fell onto the nave, and about 30% of the University Hospital in Cali collapsed. The President declared a national disaster, set up a Unified Command Post in Chocó and deployed four USAR teams and the armed forces. There was no tsunami. All figures are preliminary and are expected to change as assessment proceeds.
