The Executive Unit said most displaced families were forced to leave their homes and property suddenly, worsening their humanitarian suffering and increasing their economic vulnerability. Immediate needs include shelter and emergency shelter materials, food baskets, multipurpose cash assistance, clean drinking water, healthcare services and hygiene supplies.
The Executive Unit renewed its appeal to local authorities, international organizations and donors to intervene urgently and mobilize the resources needed to meet life-saving needs and ease the humanitarian crisis facing displaced families.
