2598	ECHO Daily Map of 9 August 2018 download .pdf	Ethiopia - Somali region - Violence and riots On Saturday 4 August, the Ethiopian Federal Army was deployed in Jijiga, the capital of the Ethiopian Somali Regional State in the South and East of the country. Some fighting between the army and the regional paramilitary police loyal to the Regional president erupted in Jijiga and Dire Dawa. Riots were reported in several towns, with shops being looted, religious buildings being burned and acts of violence being committed notably against non-Somalis. On Monday 6th August, the resignation of the Regional President Abdi Mohamoud Omar was announced. Due to the violence and volatile situation, humanitarian partners in Jijiga and in other affected areas of the Somali region have temporarily suspended their operations. They have decided to evacuate their non-essential international staff and non-Somali staff. Since the recent outbreak of violence, it is indicated that 50 000 people have fled their homes and arrived in Babile town (East Hararghe). On 8 August, 17 000 additional people were observed on the move in East Hararghe. According to the most recent information, it is estimated that approximately 10 000 to 30 000 non-Somali Ethiopians would have taken refuge in churches in Jijiga area. These people would be in a very acute situation with no access to food and water despite preliminary assistance for the Ethiopian Red cross. Inter-ethnic violence since September 2017, namely along the Oromia-Somali regional border, has led to 500 000 people still being displaced. In addition, large parts of Somali region have been the hardest hit areas of the 2016-17 drought and the floods in spring 2018. Food insecurity and climate related displaced affects 373 600 individuals. IDPs require substantial humanitarian assistance.

This was followed by a number of strong aftershocks and a minor tsunami with waves not exceeding 20 cm. The full scale of damages and humanitarian needs of the local populations are not yet known, as the governmental agencies, and local NGOs continue their assessments. It is however expected that the needs may be significant. Until now, at least 82 people are confirmed dead, hundreds were injured and more than 3,000 buildings damaged. The government has also declared an emergency status for East and North Lombok regencies. This earthquake follows a similar phenomenon that hit the same area last week and to which the local agencies have been responding. The latest experience puts additional pressure on available resources and capacities dealing with the humanitarian needs created by the calamities. At this point the Government has not indicated that there will be a request for international assistance.	1152815
