HighlightsInsecurity persisted throughout June in Vakaga prefecture near the Sudan border, with reports of regular patrols by non-state armed groups (NSAGs) and road bandits. Illegal checkpoints continued to be used for extortion, obstructing humanitarian access and endangering civilians.Reports of human rights abuses by NSAGs, such as armed robbery, assaults, arbitrary arrests, and extortion remained a concern.On 14 June, approximately 750 people (150 households) fled from the villages of Sissi and Guede to Birao (about 12 kilometres), where they are now hosted by the local community. They fled due to rumours of potential attacks and the prevailing environment of insecurity.Additionally, over 2,100 IDPs from villages along the Takamala–Boromata axis arrived in Birao with authorities reporting that some of them are already returning.Water and sanitation conditions in Korsi, the refugee neighborhood in Birao, showed no improvement in June. The average daily water supply was around 10 litres per person, remaining well below the Sphere emergency standard of 15 litres per person. No new latrines have been constructed since February. With only 393 available latrines constructed by UNHCR’s partner, NOURIIR and UNICEF’s partner, Triangle Génération Humanitaire (TGH), as well as continuing arrivals, the latrine-to-person ratio has risen to 67, far exceeding the emergency threshold of 50 people per latrine. More than 12,100 people still require adequate access to sanitation, highlighting the urgent need to construct at least 722 additional latrines.
