This document assesses the needs of the population affected by Gu flooding in the Qoryooley District, Somalia.
Dhobley, a crucial border town between Somalia and Kenya, has become a major humanitarian concern due to recent events. The area is struggling under the weight of ongoing violent clashes between al-Shabaab militants and Jubaland forces. These conflicts have significantly worsened the humanitarian situation, leading to a large-scale displacement of families.
As a result of the violence, 1,122 households have been forced to flee their homes. The Wadajir IDP camp has seen a substantial increase in new arrivals, with 712 families now residing there. This surge in population has placed immense pressure on the camp’s already limited resources and infrastructure.
This assessment comprised 11 key informant interviews conducted at 11 sites in the Dhobley district from August 5th to 6th , 2024.
The following partners took part in the assessment – OCHA, LWF, WASDA, WRRS UNHCR. JUCRI, SAAH, NRC, JF, Acted, SADO, UNICEF IOM, DRC, Alight SCI, MoH, COOPI, VCI, and AVORD.
