Chad Emergency External Update (Logone Oriental Province) - 16 February 2021
Format
OVERVIEW OF THE EMERGENCY AND RESPONSE
On 22 December 2020, few days before the presidential elections of 27 December in the Central African Republic, armed violence broke out causing thousands of people to flee to neighbouring countries. In Chad, the new arrivals entered through the Logone Province in several villages surrounding the border including Ndoubasoh, Kombat, Bethanie and Bekoninga. Some people among the new arrivals arrived from Markounda, in its surrounding localities and other Central African towns. Reportedly, they had come to work in the mining sites of Markounda and fled the country due to clashes between Seleka and Révolution-Justice armed groups which were fighting over the collection of taxes on users and the occupation of various localities such as Beboura and Bemal. According to new arrivals, the fight of Seleka armed group evolves and occupies new localities forcing people to flee to Chad.The majority of them are farmers from kaba ethnic group while the minority is composed of Peuhl breeders.

Chad: Quick alerts - 05 February 2021 | HumanitarianResponse


COVID-19 update
As of 3 February, there have been 3,433 reported cases and 121 deaths in 17 provinces. Between 27 January and 3 February, 137 new cases and three deaths were reported. Health personnel represents 5.5 per cent of all confirmed cases (187 people), an increase of 0.5 per cent or 25 people compared to last week. Following un upsurge of COVID-19 cases in the Lac province (from five cases and one death in May 2020 to a sudden 43 cases and two deaths in January 2021), the humanitarian community responded with multifaceted emergency support consisting of hygiene and sanitation supplies, medicines, food, fuel, equipment, and human resource capacity. This follows an appeal launched by the Provincial Health Delegate on behalf of the Governor of the Province. In the South, in light of the many cross-border movements of people from the Central African Republic (CAR), meetings of the COVID-19 pandemic management committee have been reactivated on the recommendation of the prefect of the department of Nya Pendé. A management strategy to accommodate new refugees from CAR in host villages has also been recommended to curb the spread of the pandemic in densely-populated environments. Although the incidence rate appears to be slowly declining all over the country (two weeks ago the number of confirmed cases was 263, last week it was 203) the Chadian Government continues to encourage strict observation of preventive measures.

another attack by combatants on a UN convoy, which left a
peacekeeper from Burundi dead, and two others
wounded.
In an appeal for an immediate end to
all bloodshed - which has included deadly clashes with UN
peacekeepers and Friday's attack in Ouaka prefecture - UNHCR also said that mass
displacement has continued outside the country since the 27
December Presidential poll, reversing a trend of people
returning to CAR in recent years.
“What is clear is
the situation has evolved, it has worsened, we have seen
that the number of refugees has doubled in just one week”,
said
spokesperson Boris Cheshirkov, during a scheduled press

OHCHR | CAR: Violations of human rights and international humanitarian law must be punished to prevent ongoing violence and conflict


GENEVA (15 January 2021) – A UN human rights expert said today impunity will continue to fuel violence and conflict in the Central African Republic unless perpetrators, co-perpetrators and accomplices of violations of human rights and international humanitarian law are arrested, prosecuted and tried.
Yao Agbetse, the Independent Expert on the situation of human rights in the CAR, said the Coalition of Patriots for Change (CPC) had obstructed the country’s electoral campaign in December, prevented the deployment of election materials, disrupted the mobilisation of voters to carry out their democratic right, and burned polling stations.
“I deplore the fact that thousands of Central Africans were unable to exercise their right to vote and that many were victims of torture or ill-treatment and death threats for exercising their right to vote in the first round of elections on December 27, 2020,” the expert said. “The CPC attacked several localities, including Kaga Bandoro, Bossangoa, Batangafo, Bozoum, Bocaranga, Koui, Carnot, and other locations in the center, west, and east of the country.  The capital Bangui was also attacked on January 13.”
