Based on initial report, at around 3:00 PM, the fire ignited from block D of camp 11 and it immediately spread across 15 sub-blocks (A1-A5, B1-B4, D1-D6) in camp11, leaving over more than 2,000 infrastructures including shelters, community centers, water network, learning centers and health facilities either fully or partly affected. The current season as well as wind intensity and direction have been one of the factors as to why the fire had spread rapidly and engulfed its surrounding areas. The Government of Bangladesh immediately mobilized its Fire Service and Civil Defense (FSCD) units from Ukhiya and Cox's Bazar to suppress the fire, while the CPP trained Disaster Management Unit (DMU) volunteers in camp 11 and from its adjacent camps also supported in managing the fire as well assisting the relocation of affected individuals to temporary safe spaces As of 6 March 2023, based on the initial report from the ongoing Joint Needs Assessment (JNA) led by the Site Management Agency, more than 3,000 households and 15,926 individuals have been affected. Among these, more than 5,000 individuals have been displaced, while 200 persons injured and 22 missing. Additionally, a total of 2,805 shelters have been damaged (2,664 fully damaged; 141 partially damaged), 992 WASH facilities damaged (980 fully damaged; 12 partially), while 155 critical facilities such as learning centers, moktubs/mosques, child/ youth/adolescent/ women friendly spaces, and health facilities have been affected. Included in the damaged facilities reported are one (1) Primary Health Center and Three (3) Water supply Networks of BDRCS.  TC-2023-000030-VUT Tropical Cyclone Vanuatu Tropical cyclone KEVIN-23 formed on March 1, 2023, over the South Pacific Ocean between Vanuatu and Caledonia and is moving southeast over the Vanuatu Islands.

Equatorial Guinea currently does not have laboratory capacity to test for VHF, hence samples from those who were sick and from close contacts were sent to Gabon and Senegal. The samples sent for testing in Gabon were negative, but the out of the eight samples sent to Dakar, Senegal, one tested positive for Marburg virus. On 13 February 2023, the Equatorial Guinea MoH officially declared the outbreak. (https://www.afro.who.int/countries/equatorial-guinea/news/equatorial-guinea-confirms-first-ever-marburg-virus-disease-outbreak) As of 17 February, 1 case is confirmed, 8 are probable (deaths from individuals with VHF symptoms that were not tested) and 16 suspect cases in isolation (2 are showing signs and symptons). 21 additional are considered secondary contacts. There is restricted access to Kie Ntem district, with an estimated 4,235 people in quarantine. The affected district is located in the north-east of Equatorial Guinea mainland, bordering Cameroon and Gabon. Several suspected cases were identified in Cameroon, but all samples were negative for Marburg virus. There is no notification of cases or symptoms related to Marburg on the Gabonese territory. Marburg Virus Disease (MVM) is a highly virulent disease that causes haemorrhagic fever, with a case fatality rate of up to 88%. It belongs to the same family of viruses that causes Ebola virus disease. The disease caused by the Marburg virus begins abruptly, with a high fever, severe headache and severe malaise. Many patients develop severe haemorrhagic symptoms within seven days. The virus is transmitted to humans by fruit bats and spreads among humans through direct contact with the body fluids of infected people, surfaces and materials. There is no approved vaccine or antiviral treatment for the virus. However, supportive care - rehydration with oral or intravenous fluids - and treatment of specific symptoms improves survival. The Marburg outbreak declared on 13 February 2023 is the first VHF outbreak in Equatorial Guinea. At present, the epidemiological situation is as follows: • 1 case confirmed, 9 deaths (8 probable cases, 1 confirmed), 16 suspect cases in isolation, 2 of those in isolation are showing signs and symptoms. 21 are considered “secondary contacts” and in isolation at home. • Estimated 4,325 people in quarantine and restricted access to Kie Ntem District. However, given the low levels of contact tracing, the reduced number of samples collected, the lack of testing capacity in country, the time required to collect and send samples to other countries, and the delays in obtaining results, these numbers may not reflect entirely the reality of the outbreak. The attack rate is also considerably high, at 23% for relatives and 81% for those providing direct care to infected persons when precautions are not strictly practiced. Moreover, case fatality ratios from past outbreaks have ranged from 24% to 88%, depending on the case management. The above, associated with the time elapsed between the identification of the first symptoms (7 January) and the confirmation of the virus (13 February), considerably heightens the potential of widespread infection, and poses challenges to the response and overall control of a very virulent outbreak. According to government information, initial alerts and deaths have been traced back to public events which, according to local religious and cultural customs, bring together several dozen and sometimes hundreds of people. Untraced contacts in the community, rumours and lack of information within the communities could be an important transmission lever that needs to be managed urgently.

At 6 p.m. (0500 GMT) Gabrielle had moved southeast of Auckland, near the east coast of the country's North Island, and was expected to continue moving southeast, roughly parallel to the coast. Weather warnings remained in place for much of the east coast of the North Island and upper South Island. About 225,000 people were left without electricity.  FL-2023-000021-NAM Flood Namibia Heavy rains were received in south eastern parts of Angola and north eastern parts of Namibia in the Cuvelai catchment during the 2nd week of January 2023, resulting in flooding conditions in Ondjiva and surrounding areas. First floodwaters were observed in some of the eastern flowing Cuvelai Iishanas (river plains) in the morning of Friday the 13th of January 2023 and during the early hours of the 17th of January, the hydrological recording station at Shanalumono located approximately 10km southwest of Oshikango reported floodwaters reaching the central Cuvelai Iishanas (river plain) with local media reporting dozens of homes flooded in several villages including Engela and Ouhongo (https://floodlist.com/africa/angola-namibia-floods-cuvelai-january-2023#:~:text=In%20Namibia%2C%20water%20flowing%20from,villages%20including%20Engela%20and%20Ouhongo.). Shanalumono is one of the main Iishanas (river plains) of the central Cuvelai River System on the Namibian side. According to the Namibia Hydrological Services, the water levels in the main Iishanas (river plains) south of the Angola/Namibia border are rising. As of 27th of January 2023, water levels at Engela station exceeded the 1m mark. Flood levels continue to increase as more rain persists in the Cuvelai catchment. The NRCS commenced joint assessments with the different government departments in the Ohangwena and Oshana regions on the 14th of January 2023. A total of 2190 people are affected by the floods with 582 people (111 households) whose houses were totally submerged in water and 1608 people (327 households) whose houses were partially submerged. Of the total 2190 affected people, 300 people are from the Oshana region, and 1890 people are from the Ohangwena region. 582 people (111 households) whose houses were totally submerged were displaced and evacuated to 9 relocation sites (7 camps are in the Ohangwena region and housing 332 people, whilst 2 camps are in the Oshana region and housing 250 people). As 35 schools in the Ohangwena region, school equipment, and infrastructure have been damaged and 18 of the schools are currently closed. At several schools, learners have started camping at the school as they are not able to return to their homes on a daily basis due to the rising water. In the Ohangwena region, three (3) clinics have been cut off with communities not having access to them.  OT-2023-000019-SOM Other Somalia According to UNOCHA, reports from local authorities and humanitarian partners show that the current fighting has displaced more than 126,000 people, with 40 people reportedly killed and over 60 injured. In addition, SRCS estimates that about 51,000 families have fled violence to seek safety elsewhere. The town is the capital of the Sool region, with four officially recognised districts, Caynaba, Las Caanood, Taleh, and Xudun, where about 480,744 households reside. A month ago, around 20,000 people were already reported displaced by the resurgence of clashes. There is an uncontrolled exodus of people out of the city seeking refuge in the surrounding area with host families or informal camps. People didn't have time to organise and pack belongings, and reports speak of people forming spontaneous settlements and sleeping under trees. Others take shelter with relatives, clansmen or friends. This often exacerbates already fragile conditions of those already experiencing drought impacts and food insecurity. The conflict has exacerbated the current situation caused by an ongoing drought and severe food insecurity. Already existing IDPs and others vulnerable groups following the context are again exposed to displacement, challenges, food insecurity and health risk. For many fleeing this violence, it is the second time they have had to move after arriving in the city in search of food and water. Need and urge and assistance currently limited due to multiple aspects. Assistance to some vulnerable people is hard as they remain stuck in areas with ongoing fights.  FL-2023-000018-MOZ Flood Mozambique Between 7-10 February, heavy rains reaching up to 100 mm in 24 hours hit the southern region of the country, causing widespread flooding in Maputo city and Maputo province.

On Friday, 20 January 2023, the Uruguayan State, through National Emergency System (SINAE), extended a formal request to the Uruguayan Red Cross for support in the evaluation and possible response to the current drought. According to SINAE, initial reports estimate more than 75,000 people affected by this emergency only in the five most affected departments of Tacuarembó, Cerro Largo, Florida, Lavalleja, and San José. Additionally, as per the information provided by the SINAE, the most pressing situation is related to the lack of access to safe water which is limiting the consumption and use of water, as well as maintenance of crops and livestock of approximately 1,300 families (5,200 people) located in these departments.  EQ-2023-000009-IRN Earthquake Iran, Islamic Republic GDACS - Medium humanitarian impact, magnitude 5.9M  FR-2023-000008-GNB Fire Guinea Bissau In the morning hours of January 14, 2023, a fire broke out in Menegue Village close to Canhabaque that burnt and destroyed dozens houses and food bands were burnt down with food stock, crops and seeds. Report from the rapid assessment shared on 19th January, by GBRCS indicated total of 2,065 people in need due to different loss of houses and settlements, livelihood, income or assets etc. Affected people reflect as below: • 413 people (59 households) have been directly affected with houses burnt partialy or completly • 1,652 people (236 households) in addition to the above have being indirectly affected by the fire incident as they have seen theirs income sources affected by fire with burnt shops or by hosting the homeless families. • 29 Burnt stores/barnes. Owners of the stores live in the community. These store owners and a few others they were supporting to store their produce face livelihood challenge. The rapid assessment finding also reveals 29 stores which have been completely destroyed, containing harvested produce and seeds for the next growing season. Owners of these stores live in the community and are facing livelihood challenges. • The Host families are currently using food reserves, shelter, and to some extent, money to support affected HHs. It is anticipated that, by the time affected HHs receive support and return to their houses, host families would have been rendered vulnerable and the majority with small food reserves will find it difficult to feed their families. Many of the houses burnt and the stores were not built with cement, but with local materials. This was the case for all the stores, which used to keep harvested, food and food reserves of communities in the village. The report also reveals the affected households are at the moment homeless with vulnerable groups exposed to deteriorated living conditions, thus at risk of facing hunger, and other health-related conditions, underscoring the need for immediate support. Though the rapid assessment did not quantify, it reveals children, lactating women, pregnant women, aged, and people with disabilities are part of the homeless people identified. Host families amounting to 236HHs are currently using their food reserves, shelter, and money to support affected HHs. It is anticipated that, by the time affected HHs receive support and return to their houses, host families would have been rendered vulnerable and the majority with small food reserves will find it difficult to feed their families.   8452 hits 339 Pages: 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30	GLIDEnumber: About Glide How to Join Participating Institutions GLIDE-enabled sites Help Topics Disclaimer Get results as: Statistics Charts Tabular Reports Report a Missing Disaster:   If you know about a disaster that is not registered in GLIDEnumber.net: Create/Edit missing disaster report Please note you need to be a registered user to report missing disasters Latest Events: Disasters on or after week 26 From: 2025/6/22  To: 2025/7/1 FL-2025-000099-KGZ Flood,Kyrgyzstan: The water volume in the high-mountain lake Takyr-Tor at approximately 17:31 on June 27 reached 450,000-500,000 cubic meters, resulting in a dam breach, the Ministry of Emergency Situations reports.The breach caused flooding, which destroyed one of the bridges between the villages of Almaluu and Kebek-Biy (Mountain Serafimovka) in Issyk-Ata district.
