IRAQ SITUATION UNHCR FLASH UPDATE 28 June 2017 POPULATION MOVEMENTS Fewer families departing from Hasansham and Khazer camps east of Mosul. 2,491 IDPs departed from camps east of Mosul over the previous week; an average drop of over 550 individuals each week since the beginning of the month. Many IDPs are concerned over renewed attacks and insecurity in areas of origin. UNHCR’s protection partner interviewed 36 families among those who decided to depart to retaken areas in east and west Mosul; most said that they chose to leave the camps to secure their properties and to find livelihood opportunities. Difficult conditions in areas of return, particularly in west Mosul. UNHCR has remained in contact, through regular phone calls, with 225 families who have returned to east and west Mosul. They say that in east Mosul and Bartalla electricity is available most of the time, while drinking water is available only every two days. In west Mosul, in contrast, most families do not have access to either public electricity or generators (either due to lack of availability or prohibitive costs). New displacement from west Anbar. Over the past week, 235 families fled Al-Qa’im, including families originally from Ninewa, Salah al-Din, Ana and Rawa, towards Kilo 18 and Kilo 60 camps. Authorities have been transferring new arrivals to Kilo 60 camp, with males 15 and above first taken to Kilo 18 screening site for security check. SITUATION UPDATE Armed groups control a dwindling portion of the Old City in Mosul. There have been counterattacks, however, in areas that Iraqi Security Forces earlier cleared in Yarmouk and Tanak neighbourhoods. This renewed insecurity threatens the safety of returnees and impairs the ability of humanitarian actors to deliver assistance. Iraqi Prime Minister Abadi announced the Government’s ten-year reconstruction plan for Iraq. The plan seeks to return all displaced persons to their places of origin, restore Iraq’s heavily damaged infrastructure, and promote coexistence among ethnic groups. The plan will require an estimated USD 100 billion, and prioritise the development of Mosul when the project begins in 2018. Conflict in Iraq has contributed to record high of over 65 million persons displaced globally in 2016. UNHCR’s Global Trends – Forced Displacement in 2016 presents statistical trends of 2016 for refugees, asylum-seekers, IDPs, returnees, stateless persons and other persons of concern to UNHCR.

IRAQ SITUATION UNHCR FLASH UPDATE 28 June 2017

POPULATION MOVEMENTS

Fewer families departing from Hasansham and Khazer camps east of Mosul. 2,491 IDPs departed from camps east of Mosul over the previous week; an average drop of over 550 individuals each week since the beginning of the month. Many IDPs are concerned over renewed attacks and insecurity in areas of origin. UNHCR’s protection partner interviewed 36 families among those who decided to depart to retaken areas in east and west Mosul; most said that they chose to leave the camps to secure their properties and to find livelihood opportunities.

Difficult conditions in areas of return, particularly in west Mosul. UNHCR has remained in contact, through regular phone calls, with 225 families who have returned to east and west Mosul. They say that in east Mosul and Bartalla electricity is available most of the time, while drinking water is available only every two days. In west Mosul, in contrast, most families do not have access to either public electricity or generators (either due to lack of availability or prohibitive costs).

New displacement from west Anbar. Over the past week, 235 families fled Al-Qa’im, including families originally from Ninewa, Salah al-Din, Ana and Rawa, towards Kilo 18 and Kilo 60 camps. Authorities have been transferring new arrivals to Kilo 60 camp, with males 15 and above first taken to Kilo 18 screening site for security check. SITUATION UPDATE

Armed groups control a dwindling portion of the Old City in Mosul. There have been counterattacks, however, in areas that Iraqi Security Forces earlier cleared in Yarmouk and Tanak neighbourhoods. This renewed insecurity threatens the safety of returnees and impairs the ability of humanitarian actors to deliver assistance.

Iraqi Prime Minister Abadi announced the Government’s ten-year reconstruction plan for Iraq. The plan seeks to return all displaced persons to their places of origin, restore Iraq’s heavily damaged infrastructure, and promote coexistence among ethnic groups. The plan will require an estimated USD 100 billion, and prioritise the development of Mosul when the project begins in 2018.

Conflict in Iraq has contributed to record high of over 65 million persons displaced globally in 2016. UNHCR’s Global Trends – Forced Displacement in 2016 presents statistical trends of 2016 for refugees, asylum-seekers, IDPs, returnees, stateless persons and other persons of concern to UNHCR. Iraqis make up 5.6 million of this total, most of whom are IDPs. Over 300,000 are refugees, mostly hosted in the immediate region, and over 278,000 have asylum cases pending as of the end of 2016.

RESPONSE UPDATE

Camp coordination and camp management (CCCM) partners using the Rapid Risk Assessment Site Priority Tool in areas around Mosul to identify priority needs in informal settlements. CCCM partners have gathered data on needs, gaps and priorities for over 470 settlements around Mosul and have identified priority needs for over 14,800 families.

Of UNHCR’s overall funding requirements to continue providing protection, shelter and camp coordination and camp management assistance to IDPs, USD 126 million are urgently required to meet critical needs of vulnerable children, women and men displaced from, and returning to, Mosul, until the end of 2017.
