During the night of 21 Jan 2014, heavy rains caused flash floods in Dumila/Dakawa area in Tanzania's Morogoro region, which displaced over 10,000 people and destroyed or damaged houses, roads, bridges, public buildings and crops. The majority of the displaced people live on safer/higher open grounds along the road, making emergency shelter a critical need. Most most of the affected villages have their boreholes contaminated with flood/muddy water. The water has started to recede in some areas, but many vulnerable households will remain in need of emergency assistance for some months to come.

Mt Sinabung volcano on Sumatra island in Indonesia was dormant for centuries until it became active in <a href="http://reliefweb.int/disaster/vo-2010-000170-idn">August and September 2010</a>. In early September 2013, monitoring stations picked up increasing volcanic and tectonic tremors. Subdued volcanic activity continued for almost a month before Mt Sinabung eruptions intensified again in mid-October triggering evacuations of nearby communities. Intensified activity and an eruption on 24 Nov prompted the Government to increase the volcano’s alert status to Level 4, the highest alert level, and to evacuate all communities within a 5km radius of

the crater. As of the end of November, 17,030 people had been evacuated. (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/report/indonesia/indonesia-humanitarian-bulletin-issue-05-september-november-2013">OCHA, 31 Nov 2013</a>)

Mt Sinabung volcano on Sumatra island in Indonesia was dormant for centuries until it became active in <a href="http://reliefweb.int/disaster/vo-2010-000170-idn">August and September 2010</a>. In early September 2013, monitoring stations picked up increasing volcanic and tectonic tremors. Subdued volcanic activity continued for almost a month before Mt Sinabung eruptions intensified again in mid-October triggering evacuations of nearby communities. Intensified activity and an eruption on 24 Nov prompted the Government to increase the volcano’s alert status to Level 4, the highest alert level, and to evacuate all communities within a 5km radius of

<p>Calbuco volcano, located in the province of Llanquihue, state of Los Lagos, southern Chile, erupted on 22 Apr 2015. Seismic activity had increased during only approximately one hour before the explosion. Volcanic ash reached a height greater than 15 km and the pyroclastic dispersal has mainly been east-northeast of the volcano, according to Chilean authorities. A Red Alert for aviation was issued and the airport of Puerto Montt suspended all flights. Navigation also seized in lakes Lianquihui, Todos los Santos and Chapo. In the province of Llanquihue and the municipality of Puerto Octay, a State of Constitutional Exception has been announced. A 20 km evacuation zone has been enforced around the erupted crater and shelters have been prepared in Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas, Puerto Octay and Cochamo. Over 4 000 evacuees have already been reported, mostly from the community of Ensenada. The last significant eruption of the same volcano was in 1961. Calbuco had been inactive since 1972 but is considered dangerous due to its destruction potential. (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/952836">ECHO, 23 Apr 2015</a>)</p>

Tropical Cyclone Ian passed east of Tonga's Vava’u group (population 15,000) in the morning of 11 Jan 2014 before the eye passed directly over Ha'apai (population 6,600) in the afternoon. The Prime Minister declared a state of emergency for Vava’u and Ha’apai the same day. There was one confirmed death, 14 injuries, and extensive damage to houses, infrastructure and agriculture across the northeast islands of Ha’apai. Over 50 per cent of the 1,130 affected buildings in Ha’apai were destroyed, with 34 per cent suffering major damage. Around 2,335 people sought shelter in 51 formal and informal shelters. On 21 Jan, the Government accepted international assistance from the Pacific Humanitarian Team.

The Government of Tonga developed a <a href="http://reliefweb.int/report/tonga/tropical-cyclone-ian-response-plan">Response Plan</a> with its humanitarian and development partners with a three month time frame. Based on the needs identified, priority areas of the response are in shelter, water, food security, education and safety and protection. The plan aims to facilitate coordination of the humanitarian response and early recovery by documenting cluster response plans and identifying gaps/requirements for response. The immediate requirements over the next three months are TOP 28.4 million of which TOP 23.7 million remains unmet. The total requirements over the next 12-18 months including immediate, recovery and initial reconstruction needs identified are TOP 90.2 million of which TOP 83.4 million remains unmet.

<p>A sudden rise of temperature in central and eastern Kazakhstan resulted in the fast melting of snow that caused floods on 8-9 Apr 2015. A state of emergency was declared in the regions of Akmola, Karaganda and Pavlodar, situated in the eastern and northern parts of Kazakhstan. The floods destroyed several villages, transportation infrastructure and bridges and disrupted electricity and water supplies. More than 12,000 people were evacuated. Five districts were affected in Karaganda region alone; the total number of the affected people is 12,670, and over 11,000 people have been evacuated from their homes after more than 1,700 houses in 35 settlements were flooded and damaged. Two unconfirmed deaths have also been reported in Karaganda region. Hundreds of people have been displaced in the other four affected regions as well.

<p>Starting on 15 Apr 2015, heavy downpour affected many parts of the Juba and Shabelle River basins both in Somalia and in the Ethiopian Highlands. Flash floods have been reported in some areas including Belet Weyne and Mogadishu. Following the heavy rains, the river levels have increased drastically in the upper reaches of the two rivers. This high river level is expected to translate into high levels downstream thus endangering vulnerable communities in Somalia. The rainfall forecast for the next seven days (18-24th Apr) is pointing towards moderate to heavy rains within the Ethiopian highlands and inside Somalia. Observed river levels along the Juba and Shabelle Rivers are expected to continue rising further in the coming week following the foreseen heavy rains. There is therefore high risk of flooding in the coming few days in the lower reaches Shabelle rivers given the current situation and the foreseen rains.

<p>Heavy rainfall over the weekend of 4-5 Apr 2015 affected almost 9,000 families in Haiti: 8,413 families in the West department (89 per cent in Cité Soleil and 8 per cent in Tabarre) and 449 families in Grande Anse. Six people died in flooding in Port-au-Prince, including five children. A total of 8,770 houses were flooded (85 per cent in Cité Soleil) and 62 destroyed (46 in Delmas and 16 in Grande Anse). 245 families evacuated spontaneously (mainly in Delmas and Tabarre). The main reasons for the damage caused are the lack of cleaning of drainage canals and unplanned construction in the ravines. Distribution of food and non-food items for the affected families and cleaning of the drainage system and ravines are the most urgent actions to be undertaken. The Civil Protection Department is mobilizing existing contingency stocks of partners (mainly NGOs and UN) and coordinating the response with the help of OCHA. No official request for additional assistance has been made so far by the Haitian government. (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/930141">ECHO, 8 Apr 2015</a>)</p>

<p>On 29 Mar 2015, heavy rains caused floods and landslides in Muhuta, a commune of Bujumbura Rural Province, in Western Burundi on the edge of Lake Tanganyika, destroying 349 houses, a health center and two schools. The displaced population found refuge in the houses of their relatives and neighbors, which put the limited resources of the hosting population under high pressure. The areas where they used to live, as well as the common areas, are entirely covered by stones and mud. The affected population belong to very poor villages from one of the most vulnerable area of the cholera belt. Two bridges were also destroyed together with 5 km of the national road number 5 between Bujumbura and Rumonge. Heavy rocks, weighing up to 2 tonnes each, are currently blocking the roads and therefore preventing all commercial activities for the affected population.

<p>The heaviest rain in decades pounded much of central and western Argentina at the beginning of March 2015, triggering flooding and prompting evacuations (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/874651">AFP, 3 Mar 2015</a>). More than 4,400 people were evacuated in the provinces of Cordoba, Santa Fe, San Luis, Catamarca and Santiago del Estero). The most affected district was Cordoba, where 1,200 people had to leave their homes. (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/883136">OCHA, 9 Mar 2015</a>) On 9 Mar, authorities declared a State of Emergency throughout Tucumán, as 300 families had been evacuated and another 7,000 were awaiting orders for evacuation in the southern part of the province (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/884566">ECHO, 10 Mar 2015</a>).</p>

region (population of 6.8 million) and is the strongest earthquake that hit Bohol in nearly 25 years, possibly caused by a fault line unknown until this disaster. There were at least 2,500 aftershocks since the first powerful earthquake and 64 of them were strong enough to be felt. A total of 195 people died, 651 were injured and 12 missing. The earthquake caused landslides and extensive damage to housing, hospitals, schools, infrastructure and utilities, with more than 53,300 houses severely damaged or destroyed. More than 344,300 people were displaced, of whom 71,400 people (or 20 per cent) stayed in 99 evacuation centres. An action plan was launched on 25 Oct, seeking $46.8 million to implement 23 projects across 13 sectors over a three to six month period to deliver aid to 344,300 people.

Cyclone Phailin left a trail of destruction along India's east coast and at least seven people dead after making landfall on 12 Oct 2013 in Orissa state. Officials in Orissa said 873,000 people moved before the cyclone made landfall, while at least another 100,000 were evacuated further south in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Residents were also evacuated from coastal regions of West Bengal state. As emergency teams began assessing damage from the country's biggest cyclone in 14 years, a massive relief effort went into full swing to distribute food to an estimated one million evacuees, clear roads and help the injured. Some 600,000 people were left homeless after the ferocious storm swept through 14,000 villages mainly in coastal districts.

Nari, the 11th storm to hit Viet Nam this year, made landfall in Danang and Quang Nam areas with a Category 1 level on 15 Oct, causing severe and extensive flooding between 15-19 Oct in the three northern-central provinces of Nghe An, Ha Tinh and Quang Binh. 27 people were killed, and over 96,000 houses flooded. As of 25 Oct, the water had receded from the flooded provinces.

<p>In December 2014, an outbreak of measles started in Sudan&#39;s Gedarif and Kassala States. A localized response vaccination campaign was implemented. However, clustered measles cases started to be reported from additional 13 localities in 10 states. By the beginning of March 2015, more than 1,600 suspected cases (with 710 confirmed) had been reported from 23 localities in 12 states. One of the most affected states was West Darfur, with most of the cases among gold mining workers. (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/931846">WHO/UNICEF, 8 Mar 2015</a>) One month later, at the beginning of April, 3,015 suspected cases (with 1,697 confirmed) had been reported from 31 localities in 14 states. Darfur states reported 59 per cent of measles deaths in Sudan. (<a href="http://reliefweb.int/node/930581">WHO/UNICEF, 5 Apr 2015</a>)</p>

After Vietnam, Nari moved over central Lao PDR and eastern Thailand, weakening, but still producing heavy rainfall. In southern Lao 65mm in 24 hours were measured on 15 October and 97mm in the north. In Thailand, where 21 provinces are already suffering from floods, 50 to 100mm of rain in 24 hours were measured in numerous places in the eastern parts.

Since August 2013 a cholera epidemic has been on-going in Benin. The epidemic was declared in the Sô-Ava municipality in the department of the Atlantic in the south of Benin in September, and as of 2 Oct, a total of 129 confirmed cases were reported in the municipality. Since then, cases have been reported in 13 municipalities with a concentration n Cotonou (196 cases, 4 deaths), Sô-Ava (234 cases) and Acomey-Calawi (22 cases). As of 27 Jan 2014, the total of registered cases is 438 with 6 deaths. During December 2013 no new cases were reported, but since early January 2014, new cases have been reported in So-Ava. This is most likely related to the same outbreak, but increased surveillance and monitoring is necessary to guide the response.

On the night of 17-18 Sep 2013, heavy rains caused the rupture of the dam along the Logone River at the town of Dougui, Kai Kai District in the Far North Region of Cameroon. This caused initial evacuations of people to the banks of the dam. On 27 Sep, a second rupture in the dam 4 km from the first rupture started flooding the area and nearly 9,000 people were displaced and resided in the open air along the banks of the dam.
