Situation Report #31, Fiscal Year (FY) 2002    May 3, 2002


Note: this Situation Report updates previous Central Asia Task Force
Situation Reports and Fact Sheets.

BACKGROUND

Two decades of war in Afghanistan, including a decade-long Soviet
occupation and ensuing civil strife, left Afghanistan impoverished and
mired in an extended humanitarian crisis.  Government infrastructure,
including the ability to deliver the most basic health, education, and
other social services, collapsed.  Severe restrictions by the Taliban,
including a restriction on women working outside the home, added to the
impact of poverty, particularly on the many households lacking able-bodied
adult men.  A devastating regional drought compounded the crisis, drying
up wells, parching agricultural land, killing off livestock, collapsing
rural economies, and eventually exhausting the coping mechanisms of many
ordinary Afghans, forcing them to leave their homes in search of food and
water.

International relief agencies, with support from the United States (U.S.),
have long been active in providing humanitarian assistance to the Afghan
people, even during the restrictive years of the Taliban.  On October 7,
2001, a Coalition-led military campaign against al-Qaeda and Taliban
forces began, and by December 2001, the Taliban had collapsed.  The new
Afghan Interim Authority (AIA) was sworn in on December 22, 2001,
increasing humanitarian access to the country and beginning the process of
reconstruction.  Tens of thousands of refugee and internally displaced
families have started to return to their homes to assist in the
rebuilding.  The U.S. Agency for International Development's Disaster
Assistance Response Team (USAID/DART), which began its emergency
coordination work in response to the regional drought in June 2001,
continues to assess the humanitarian needs of vulnerable Afghans, and to
monitor the relief programs of its implementing partners.

CURRENT SITUATION

Overview.  The Loya Jirga process continued this week in 35 more
districts.  Turkey announced it would assume command of the International
Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in June.  Factional fighting erupted in
northern Afghanistan and in Paktia Province.  Heavy rains in northern
Takhar Province caused a mudslide in the village of Tin Gorni, killing 30
people.  The World Food Program (WFP) began rapid assessment missions by
helicopter in remote areas of the central highlands.  More than half a
million Afghan refugees and internally displaced person (IDPs) have been
assisted in returning home this year.  The U.N. High Commissioner for
Refugees (UNHCR) is sending an assessment mission to the Spin
Boldak-Chaman border crossing area.  Efforts are being made to increase
monitoring and treatment of tuberculosis to prevent drug resistance.

Political/Military.  The first phase of the Loya Jirga process continued
this week, bringing to 46 the number of assemblies (shuras) convened to
select district representatives. Over the coming weeks, each of the
county's 381 districts will hold shuras.  These representatives will in
turn meet at the end of May in nine regional centers across the country to
select their district's delegation to the Loya Jirga, to be held June
10-16 in Kabul.  Eventually, 1,051 Afghans will be chosen to attend the
Loya Jirga, with an additional 450 seats reserved for various Afghan
institutions and groups.  Under the Bonn Agreement, the Loya Jirga will
determine a two-year transitional government until elections are held.

On May 1, Turkey announced an agreement had been reached for it to assume
command of ISAF for six months, taking over leadership from the United
Kingdom.  The date for the transition has not yet been decided, but will
likely take place after the June Loya Jirga meeting.  According to the
announced agreement, Turkey does not intend to expand the ISAF beyond
Kabul.

A spokesman for ISAF announced on April 29 that the U.S. military is
setting up training camp on the outskirts of Kabul to prepare up to 18,000
Afghans over the course of 18 months to serve in a multi- ethnic national
Afghan army.

The NGO Physicians for Human Rights reported this week the possible
presence of a mass grave (site with multiple burials) dating from around
the time of the fall of the Taliban near the northern city of Mazar-e-
Sharif in Balkh Province.  There has been no confirmation of this report.
The U.N. team investigating possible mass graves in Bamiyan Province will
visit several sites near Mazar-e-Sharif in the coming days, according to a
spokesman for the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA).

Security.  On April 30, fighting erupted between rival warlords in
northern Afghanistan.  At least six people were killed in the clashes.
The clashes began in the towns of Sar-e-Pul and Shulgara, near the
northern city of Mazar-e-Sharif, where fighters loyal to Abdul Rashid
Dostum engaged fighters loyal to Atta Mohammed.  Both men are AIA defense
ministry commanders.  On May 2, UNAMA announced that following UNAMA and
AIA intervention, the generals had reached a truce and agreed to establish
a new Security Commission for Mazar-e-Sharif.  They also re-affirmed their
previous agreement to create a 600- person police force comprised of
individuals from various warring factions, and to prohibit the carrying of
weapons in Mazar-e-Sharif.

On April 27, factional fighting in Gardez, Paktia Province killed 25
people when soldiers loyal to Padshah Khan Zadran fired more than 200
rockets on the city.  Zadran had been appointed governor of Paktia
Province three months ago by AIA Chairman Hamid Karzai, but was replaced
when he clashed with another local warlord in Gardez.  The current
governor, Taj Muhammad Wardak, has reportedly given Zadran 10 days to take
part in negotiations or face reprisal. The fighting has disrupted the
schedule of Loya Jirga shura meetings around Gardez.  There were also
reports of fighting in the Qara Bagh district of Ghazni Province.

On May 1, four people involved in the selection process for the Loya Jirga
were injured when their vehicle struck a landmine in Khost Province.
Also on May 1, attackers fired a rocket at the building where U.S. forces
searching for al-Qaeda members in Miranshah, about nine miles from the
Afghanistan border in northwestern Pakistan, were sleeping.  The rocket
missed and no one was injured.

Coalition forces have reportedly begun a new offensive this week, dubbed
Operation Snipe, aimed at remnant al-Qaeda and Taliban in southeastern
Afghanistan.  On May 2, two rockets exploded near the airport at Khost,
where some U.S. forces are reportedly based, without causing casualties.

UNAMA reports that while all major roads are now open for U.N. travel,
banditry is affecting access on some roads, particularly in the southwest.
There are also security restrictions when traveling on the Kabul-Kandahar
road and the Kabul-Jalalabad road, due to unconfirmed threats against U.N.
and western staff.  Criminality is reportedly increasing in the north, in
Kandahar, in Jalalabad, and on the outskirts of Kabul.

Mudslide.  According to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working in
the region, heavy rains this week in northern Takhar Province caused a
mudslide in the village of Tin Gorni, located between Taloqan and Rostaq
north of the Kocha River, killing 30 people, destroying the homes of 400
families, and burying surrounding cultivated land.  More than 100 of the
affected families have left the village for Deshta Qala and other areas.
Several NGOs, including USAID/OFDA partners Concern and Shelter for Life,
have been assessing immediate needs and coordinating relief efforts with
local authorities.

Flood.  According to UNAMA, on April 23 the heaviest rains in five years
in Badghis Province caused flooding in Qala-i-Naw and Ab Kamari districts,
killing six people.  Some 500 homes and shops, and 4,300 hectares of
agricultural land were destroyed.  In Qala-i-Naw and eight surrounding
villages, the flooding affected some 3,000 people and washed out local
roads.  This week, 1,745 flood victims received a benefit package of
two-week supply of food, potable water, water containers, and blankets.
Those left homeless are living with friends, relatives, or neighbors, and
tents have not been requested.  UNAMA reports that humanitarian assistance
in the region is sufficient to meet any further relief needs.

Food Aid and Logistics.  Since October 2001, WFP, with support from USAID,
has delivered 440,183 MT of food into Afghanistan, of which 350,319 MT has
been distributed throughout the country, assisting some 6.6 million
Afghans.  WFP has conducted more than 60 rapid assessment missions in
Afghanistan over the past few weeks.  The findings indicate an increased
need for food aid in the pre-harvest hunger period of April, May and June.
WFP reported that malnutrition persists, the sale of household assets
continues, and more children are being pushed into the labor market to
support their families. WFP's target is to provide 275,000 MT of food
assistance to an estimated nine million people until the harvest in July.

This week, WFP began rapid assessment missions in the central highlands,
using helicopters operating out of a base in Bamiyan town.  On May 1, WFP
reached Daikundi District in northern Uruzgan Province with plans to visit
10 vulnerable villages in the area, following reports from local elders of
a serious humanitarian situation.  Further assessments in more isolated
areas of the district were planned throughout the week.

WFP, the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the AIA
Ministry of Agriculture are conducting a nationwide crop assessment in May
and June to determine the area of land planted and to estimate likely
harvest outputs.  While livestock will be part of this survey, a more
comprehensive survey of livestock conditions will take place in the
autumn.

IDPs and Refugees.  UNHCR, the AIA, and the NGO community are preparing
for the anticipated return this summer of more than 1.2 million Afghan
refugees and IDPs.  According to UNHCR, more than 435,000 Afghans have
been assisted in returning home in the nine weeks since UNHCR and the AIA
began their voluntary repatriation program in coordination with
neighboring governments.  The International Organization for Migration
(IOM) reports more than 135,00 IDPs have also taken part in assisted
returns.

UNHCR reported that 14 repatriation centers are now open across
Afghanistan providing assistance to returnees, with four more expected to
open next week.  Although these centers were opened in conjunction with
the voluntary repatriation program, spontaneous returnees are also
permitted to receive startup packages of humanitarian assistance from the
centers.

UNHCR reports that more than 400,000 Afghans have returned from Pakistan
since its program began March 1, exceeding in just two months UNHCR's
planning figure for returns from Pakistan for the whole year.  Ninety
percent of the returnees pass through the Takhtabaig voluntary
repatriation center near Peshawar, Pakistan.  An estimated 40 percent are
destined for urban centers in Afghanistan, with roughly three in every
four returnees going back to Nangarhar and Kabul provinces.  There are
three official border-crossing points, at Nawa Pass and Torkham in the
north and Spin Boldak in the south.

According to UNHCR, more than 26,500 Afghans have returned from Iran
through the northern Islam Qala crossing point at Dogharun since its
program began on April 9.  An estimated half of the returnees are
traveling to Herat Province, around 20 percent to Kabul, and the remainder
to Ghazni, Kunduz, Loghar and Wardak provinces.  The Milak-Zaranj border
crossing in the south remained closed, although UNHCR reported this week
that the crossing is anticipated to open on May 4.

Working with UNHCR, IOM has started the assisted voluntary return of
Afghans living in Tajikistan.  On May 2, the first IOM convoy transporting
some 146 returnees crossed the border into Afghanistan at Nizhny Panj.
Last week, IOM completed the return to Kunduz Province of 8,918 Afghans
who had been living on the islands in the Pyandj River bordering
Tajikistan.

On April 30, UNHCR, in cooperation with IOM, began assisting IDPs from
Kabul to return home to Bamiyan Province.  Approximately 1,300 people
returned home this week.  Returnees to the central Bamiyan highlands
receive a winterization package, as the weather is still cold and many
houses were damaged or destroyed by war.

In Herat, IOM has assisted 43,660 IDPs from Maslakh, Shaidayee, Rawzabagh,
and Minarets IDP camps to return to their homes in Herat and Badghis
provinces.  An additional 23,000 IDPs are scheduled to return over the
next two weeks.  IOM is setting up a transit camp in Chest-e-Sharif, in
western Herat Province, to assist more than 16,000 IDPs from Maslakh camp
to begin returning to their homes in Ghor Province.

In Mazar-e-Sharif, IOM has assisted 39,722 persons to return to their
homes in several provinces across northern Afghanistan.  Returns to
Sar-e-Pul Province this week were cancelled due to factional fighting in
the area.

>From the central Bamiyan Province, some 7,000 mostly ethnic Hazara Afghans
have returned to 13 villages in the Shaighan Valley, Baghlan Province
since April 22, following a campaign to clear area villages of land mines
and unexploded ordnance.

In Jalalabad, UNHCR has assisted more than 5,500 IDPs from Hesar Shahi
camp near Jalalabad to return to their villages in Nangarhar, Laghman, and
Kabul provinces.  Hesari Shahi has been home to more than 24,000 IDPs for
the last three years.

Last week some 585 IDPs left the southeastern border town of Spin Boldak
for Ghazni and Paktika provinces, despite continuing reports of
instability in parts of these provinces.

UNHCR announced that an assessment mission will travel to the Spin
Boldak-Chaman border area on May 2.  There are still 40,000 Afghans
waiting in no man's land to enter Pakistan, some of whom are reportedly
refusing what limited assistance is available in protest of their
conditions.  UNHCR is working with authorities on both sides of the border
to resolve the crisis.  UNHCR is providing a package assistance to those
waiting who wish to return their homes in Afghanistan.  A survey of
families in the waiting area revealed that nearly half are ethnic Pashtuns
originating from northern Afghanistan, and about 30 percent of the total
number would be willing to return to their homes if helped to do so.
Meanwhile, for those Afghans who cannot or do not want to return home,
UNHCR is considering relocation to several new sites in Kandahar.

Health.  The World Health Organization (WHO) has begun a "Stop
Tuberculosis (TB)" campaign, having identified TB treatment and monitoring
as a serious problem.  As Afghan refugees and IDPs return to their homes,
existing health structures cannot ensure continued treatment for
identified TB caseloads, thus increasing the likelihood that limited
treatment without follow-up may contribute to the disease becoming drug
resistant.

The U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF) reports that acute flaccid paralysis
(AFP) surveillance capacity is now back to levels that reach international
standards in all parts of the country.



USG HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE

Background.  On October 4, 2001, Assistant Secretary of State for South
Asian Affairs Christina B. Rocca redeclared a complex humanitarian
disaster in Afghanistan for FY 2002.  To date, FY 2001 and FY 2002 USG
humanitarian assistance for Afghans is provided by USAID/OFDA, Food for
Peace (USAID/FFP), Democracy & Governance (USAID/DG), Office of Transition
Initiatives (USAID/OTI), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA),
Department of State's Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration
(State/PRM), Department of State's Humanitarian Demining Program
(State/HDP), the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics
and Law Enforcement Affairs (State/INL), the Department of Defense (DOD),
and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).  The assistance
is for displaced persons inside Afghanistan and Afghan refugees in
neighboring countries.

On March 26, 2002, U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan Robert P. Finn issued a
disaster declaration due to the earthquake in Baghlan Province.
USAID/OFDA responded by providing an additional $25,000 in Disaster
Assistance Authority to ACTED, one of many USAID-funded grantees that are
providing humanitarian assistance to the affected population.

In Tajikistan, on October 10, 2001, U.S. Chargé d'Affaires James A.
Boughner declared a disaster due to drought, and requested funds for a
seed and fertilizer distribution program.  USAID/OFDA responded by
providing $998,180 through the U.S.  Embassy to Cooperative for American
Relief Everywhere (CARE) for the purchase and distribution of winter wheat
seeds and fertilizer.


USAID/OFDA ASSISTANCE

Personnel.  USAID/OFDA currently has one Disaster Assistance Response Team
(DART) based in Kabul to assess humanitarian activities and logistical
capacity in the region.  USAID/DART members coordinate with the
humanitarian relief community and assess the humanitarian situation.
