Drought |
Nepal |
Madhesh Province (Province-2), which consists of eight districts, has been facing a severe water crisis that has severely impacted the lives and livelihoods of over 1,220,000 people due to a lack of adequate rainfall in the province.
This comes despite forecasts from the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology predicting above-average rainfall and warmer temperatures across the country this year. However, halfway through the monsoon season, the central plains have experienced far less rainfall than expected.
Not only is this creating a severe crisis in access to safe and sufficient drinking water, but it is also affecting sanitation, personal and environmental hygiene, and the livelihoods of the people, especially agriculture and livestock management.
Furthermore, it is increasing the risk of waterborne and vector-borne disease outbreaks in the affected communities.
Both the provincial and federal governments of Nepal declared a drought emergency on 23rd July 2025. |

The communities in Nissan, Fead, Carterets, Mortlock and Tasman islands in North Bougainville district of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville (AROB) are experiencing drought conditions since November 2024. The persistence of the dry spell prompted the Autonomous Bougainville Government's (ABG) Regional Disaster Centre (BRDC) to conduct a remote disaster needs assessment. According to the BRDC's assessment report dated 26 February 2026, the now 5-month long drought has resulted in the depletion of the communities' water supplies typically stored in rain-fed water tanks. The affected populations, totalling 10,948 persons or 2,248 families or households have begun to resort to sourcing drinking water from dug-out wells and coconuts, and using sea water for cooking. |

In October 2024, the Ghana Health Service has announced a cholera outbreak affecting five regions in the country, notably: Greater Accra, Central, Western, Eastern and Asanti. As part of the interventions strategies to reverse the spread of the disease, Ghana Health Service in collaboration with UNICEF and partners in November 2024 introduced cholera vaccine- Oral cholera vaccine (OCV).
On December 19, 2024, the outbreak had claimed 27 lives and spread across 36 districts in the Greater Accra, Central, Western, and Eastern regions, with a total of 3,292 reported cases. As of December 23, a cumulative total suspected cases were 4,155 cases and 35 deaths with majority of the dead recorded withing 24 hours. While the number of cases in the Western Region is declining mainly due to the vaccination campaign, there is an increase in geographical spread and a rise in cases in the other regions. Between 24 and 31 december 2024, 29 new cases and 1 new death were recorded, with a cumulative number of 4850 suspected cases from the begining of the epidemic and 1 new affected district. These figures indicate that the epidemic continues to spread and there is a need to continue the initial efforts to ensure an efficient response.
Another fear is that with the recent torrential rains that affected Accra, drainage issues have been exacerbated, raising concerns that if these conditions persist, the situation could worsen significantly. |

The deep depression in the Bay of Bengal conditions to the northeast of Sri Lanka has caused heavy rains across the country since 23rd November 2024. The heavy rainfall along the coastal side, which has continued since 23rd November, triggered flash floods in the country on 26th November 2024.
On 29th November 2024, the Department of Meteorology issued a ‘Red' alert warning for Cyclone “FENGAL” over the Southwest Bay of Bengal for the land and the deep and shallow sea areas around the island. As per the warning, the Deep Depression over Southwest Bay of Bengal moved north-northwestwards and intensified into a cyclonic storm “FENGAL” and was located about 280 km northeast of Kankasanthurai and 310 km north-northeast of Trincomalee.
Heavy flash flooding has affected low-lying regions, and disruptions to fisheries have led to warnings from Sri Lanka's Disaster Management Centre. Authorities have advised fishermen to suspend their operations.
Several roads and bridges have been damaged, particularly in the Northern, North Central, and Eastern Provinces. The primary route from Colombo to Ratnapura, Wellawaya, and Batticaloa has been temporarily closed, and the public is advised to use alternative routes.

Fire |
Syrian Arab Rep |
Multiple fires have recently occurred in the coastal and central regions of Syria. The potential causes of these fires are diverse, including
the warm eastern winds commonly observed during this time of year. Additionally, an abundance of dry vegetation that burns rapidly,
coupled with reduced moisture content in trees, contributes to the fire risk. There is also a possibility that some fires have been ignited
due to human activities.
Since October 29, 2024, there has been a marked increase in fire intensity, particularly in the Homs and Lattakia governorates. The
majority of the fires have been reported in rugged mountainous and remote areas. The size and severity of certain bushfires have
produced localized weather phenomena, that trap heat and generate strong winds, further exacerbating the fire situation. High wind
conditions have facilitated the rapid spread of the flames, with some fires crossing highways and roads. The lack of capacity for the
firemen such as vehicles and fuel are some of many other factors affecting the capacities of public services due to the continuities of
Syrian crisis including the impact of different inputs (the Middle East crisis, the sanctions, climate change, etc.).
Separate fires also occurred in Tartous governate however the scale of those fires is limited with limited impact on the local population. |
