Drought |
Papua New Guinea |
The National Weather Service had advised that the current drought conditions in much of the country were expected to continue until the end of September or early October. Provinces at severe drought risk include Bougainville, Central, East New Britain, East Sepik, Enga, Jiwaka, Madang, Morobe, National Capital District, Western Highlands, West New Britain, and West Sepik. As the country approaches the wet season at the end of the year, much of the country is expected to receive above-average rainfall influenced by a La Niña event. However, the New Guinea Islands region tends to be drier during La Niña events and so chances of drought continuing in New Britain, New Ireland, Manus, and Bougainville is relatively high. (UNCT PNG, 9 Sep 2022)
The Prime Minister Hon. James Marape says the Government is well aware of prolonged drought in several provinces of the country and is on standby to assist. PM Marape said East New Britain, New Ireland, Manus and parts of Morobe were also affected by the drought. (Govt. PNG, 20 Oct 2022) |

Pakistan |
Between 1 January and 27 September 2022, a total of 25,932 confirmed dengue cases and 62 deaths (CFR 0.25%) were reported in Pakistan, with 74% of these cases reported in the month of September alone. The current surge in cases follows unprecedented flooding that began in mid-June 2022. With the current flood crisis affecting the national health system capacity and the growing humanitarian situation, there is a high risk of serious health impacts from dengue fever and other concurrent disease outbreaks. High population movement between Pakistan and bordering countries (in particular, Afghanistan and the Islamic Republic of Iran) means that the international transmission of dengue fever cannot be ruled out. |

According to the situation report prepared by the National Agency for Civil Protection (ANPC) and presented to the Government on September 29, 2022, this sudden rise in water levels due to the release of water from the Nagbeto dam in Togo and heavy rains caused 4 deaths by drowning and 35 deaths due to water-related accidents and 3 missing persons. The coasts of the Mono, Ouémé and Niger rivers in Benin experienced a peak in river overflow. This situation has led to widespread flooding in several municipalities in Benin such as: Cotonou, Abomey-Calavi, Sô-Ava, Sèmè-Podji, Aguégués, Adjohoun, Bonou, Dangbo, Ouinhi, Zagnanado, Zogbodomey, Glazoué, Grand-Popo, Athiémé, Lokossa, Bopa, Tchaourou, Malanville, Karimama, Banikoara, Dassa-Zoumè, Savalou, and Zè, with several villages currently under water. Numerous socio-community infrastructures, including more than fifty elementary school and a dozen colleges, were submerged by the floods. In addition, several houses have been destroyed or damaged, as well as crossing structures. According to the report shared by the Government, more than 73,000 people have been affected, as well as nearly 1,400 houses damaged by the waters, of which at least 670 have been completely destroyed. Significant agricultural and livestock losses have been recorded on nearly 18,000 hectares of land in the 22 communes. A session of the National Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction was urgently convened by the Minister of the Interior, President of the Platform, on September 29, 2022 to take stock of the situation. The Beninese Red Cross, a member of this platform, took part in this session as an active member. As a result of this session, a series of feasible recommendations were agreed upon with partners and members to reduce exposure to flooding and assist affected families, including rapid assessment of the situation followed by actions to relocate communities affected by flooding and in dire need of immediate assistance. This situation has placed these areas on red alert and according to forecasts by the Meteorological Service, these areas could remain on red alert until November due to the continued intensification of rainfall until this period. Several meetings have been organized since September 29 at the local level where the Red Cross is present through its decentralized structures. It should be noted that some communes, including Zangnanado, one of the most vulnerable communes in Benin in terms of flooding, did not wait for the heavy rains before formulating a request for support to the Beninese Red Cross. In addition, seeing dangerously the rise of the rains with the damage that characterizes them, from September 30, the municipalities have addressed by formulating requests to the National Society to support the relocation in safe areas, families affected by floods and provide them with immediate assistance through a range of services including shelter, health services and basic needs, as well as ensure the prevention of diseases. Since September 29, 2022, a state of emergency has been announced in several municipalities by local authorities and by our local committees. |

Central African Republic |
On the night of September 28, 2022, torrential rains fell on the city of Bangui and its surroundings. They led to an increase in the level of the Oubangui River, which overflowed its bed, causing flooding in the riparian areas of Arrondissements 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, Bimbo and Bégoua. This situation increases the vulnerability of the victims in these areas which were already affected during the successive floods suffered during the months of July and August 2022 and which left more than 21,700 people homeless across the country, and refugees in families of reception, schools and churches (OCHA, August 2022). The rains of September 28 added to this already significant balance sheet despite the mobilization of the actors on the ground whose actions started since the beginning of the flood season are running out of steam.
The impact of the floods that occurred on September 28 leaves a significant gap in assistance with many needs. The National Society's assessment reveals thousands of houses weakened by water, hundreds of latrines and wells damaged or destroyed by water. The losses of equipment and cultivable land are considerable as the normal harvest season approaches, which should begin in October. Twenty-two (22) injured were also recorded. Most of the victims are located in arrondissements 2, 3, 5 and 6 which are considered priority one zones by the Government. Monitoring of the towns of Paoua, Kouango and Bambari which were also hit by floods following heavy rainfall. They represent the localities most affected by the floods. The houses being either flooded or destroyed, the population moved to host families or schools. The density and frequency of rains to date and the continuity of precipitation in the coming weeks raise fears of a worsening of the situation. According to the seasonal calendar the rains should continue until the end of October (Source: SEASONAL CALENDAR FOR A TYPICAL YEAR, FEWS NET).
From National Society assessment, There are 24,758 people affected by the floods: 21,407 homeless people due to these successive floods, 4,281 households affected with 2,823 houses completely destroyed, 1,458 houses partially destroyed, 53 people injured, 02 loss of life. 2417 damaged family latrines, 1092 damaged and contaminated water wells, 05 broken bridges and all water pipes are clogged and overflowed. The situation is alarming, emergency aid to the victims of the disaster is essential. |

Epidemic |
Haiti |
After more than three years without a single cholera case, as of 2 October, Haitian authorities have confirmed two cases and identified several other suspected cases across several communes in the Ouest department, including the
Port-au-Prince metropolitan area and Cité Soleil. The deadly illness has resurfaced as the country continues to be paralyzed by gang blockades that have triggered severe shortages of fuel, safe drinking water and limited access to health services across the country.
Access to clean drinking water and proper sanitation services are critical for preventing the spread of cholera, raising
serious concerns about containing the spread of the infection as heightened insecurity and mobility challenges
increasingly limit access to both for most Haitians. Additionally, restricted access to affected areas creates challenges for the surveillance and timely assessment of the epidemiological situation while fuel shortages could affect the shipment of biological samples from health facilities to reference laboratories, creating an extra layer of complexity for prevention and response efforts.
