CENTRAL ASIA REGION - Complex Emergency
Situation Report #44, Fiscal Year (FY) 2002 September 30, 2002
Note: This Situation Report updates previous Central Asia Region Situation
Reports and Fact Sheets. New information is italicized.
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
recovery and rehabilitation. The selection of President Hamid Karzai and
his cabinet during the Emergency Loya Jirga in June 2002 inaugurated the
Islamic Transitional Government of Afghanistan (ITGA). More than one
million refugees and a half a million internally displaced persons (IDPs)
have returned to their homes to assist in the rebuilding effort. The U.S.
Agency for International Development's Disaster Assistance Response Team
(USAID/DART) began its emergency coordination work in response to the
regional drought in June 2001, and a USAID/OFDA Program Office in Kabul
continues to assess the humanitarian needs of vulnerable Afghans, and to
monitor the relief programs of its implementing partners.

CURRENT SITUATION
Overview. U.S. soldiers and military bases were the target of several
attacks in recent weeks. Winter preparation plans continue for the more
than 550,000 Afghans who are expected to experience hardship during the
winter. The U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) closed all but
one voluntary return center for Afghan refugees in Pakistan due to
declining return numbers.
Political/Military. At a recent meeting of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO), Germany's defense minister proposed that Germany and
the Netherlands assume command of the International Security Assistance
Force (ISAF) once Turkey's six- month rotation ends in late December.
Security. A number of recent attacks targeted U.S. military positions in
Afghanistan. On September 20, attackers fired six rockets at a U.S. base
in Paktia Province, prompting a U.S. military response. Rockets were
fired September 17 at U.S. positions in the eastern city of Asadabad,
Kunar Province and the village of Shkin, Paktika Province. Also in Kunar
Province, two U.S. soldiers were injured during an ambush. Responding to
ISAF intelligence about a possible threat to Bagram Air Base, Afghan
police in Kabul intercepted a tanker carrying 44,000 liters of jet fuel
that was rigged with explosives and destined for the U.S. military base.
Police continue to investigate the incident.
In other acts of violence affecting civilians and the relief community, an
explosion in a residential neighborhood of Kabul was reported on September
28, causing no serious injuries. Gunmen fired rifles and threw a grenade
in a vegetable market in Kandahar, wounding two Afghan soldiers and three
civilians. Two rockets struck a United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF)
compound in Jalalabad on September 17, seriously injuring a local U.N.
staff person. On September 13, a UNHCR storage tent in Spin Boldak was
burned down and its contents lost.
Fighting between rival local factions was reported in the northern
provinces of Sar-e-Pul, Samangan, and Badakhshan, in the eastern province
of Nangarhar, and in the southeastern province of Paktia. U.N. missions
to Kunar and Nuristan provinces have been suspended, and access limited to
Laghman Province, due to ongoing military activity.
Winter Preparation. The ITGA Afghan Assistance Coordination Authority
(AACA) and the ITGA Ministry for Rural Reconstruction and Development
(MRRD), working with the U.N. Joint Logistics Center (UNJLC) and other
U.N. agencies, NGOs, and provincial authorities, is finalizing a common
humanitarian assistance strategy for the coming winter. The strategy will
address both urban issues affecting recently returned refugees, as well as
rural winter access issues, including pre-positioning of food and non-food
supplies in areas that will become cut-off by heavy snows. Some
non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and U.N. agencies have expressed
concern that there is not sufficient time or funding before winter to
implement the strategy.
Following a preliminary survey of Afghan provinces, UNHCR estimates that
556,420 Afghans may experience hardship during the coming winter. Of this
number, 290,700 returnees would likely be affected by the cold weather, in
addition to 265,720 internally displaced persons (IDPs).
According to its initial survey of needs and a review of available stocks,
UNHCR reports a shortage of tents. UNJLC estimates a need for 40,504
tents, though only 4,500 tents are currently in stock. Other winter needs
include stoves, charcoal, blankets, and plastic sheeting.
Food Aid and Agriculture. WFP is facing breaks in its cereal pipeline
starting in October, with subsequent breaks expected in November and
December. WFP anticipates that cereals will be unavailable after
December, based on the current level of donor contributions. Food stocks
between now and the end of the year are critical for pre- positioning food
in preparation for winter.
Preliminary results of the WFP 2002-2003 Vulnerability and Analysis
Mapping (VAM) assessment have been released, and are consistent with
those of the FAO/WFP Crop and Food Supply Assessment completed this
summer. According to the data, increased precipitation in the north and
west of the country has resulted in increased production and an
improvement in overall food security in those areas. However, in the
southern and eastern provinces, as well as in Uruzgan, Bamiyan and Wardak
provinces, drought continues to have a negative impact on food security
and livelihoods. Furthermore, the assessment has identified pockets with
acute levels of food insecurity, most notably in the northeastern
provinces of Badakhshan, Baghlan and Takhar. In the Central Highlands and
in the provinces of Ghor, Sar-e-Pul, Faryab and Farah, the population
continues to experience high levels of food insecurity, despite an overall
improvement of the general food situation from last year.
Data from this year's Crop and Food Supply Assessment indicate that while
yields have increased significantly (82 percent over last year's drought
crop) due to better precipitation and the provision of international
assistance in those areas that were planted this season, more than 6
million of the most vulnerable Afghans will continue to require targeted
food assistance. In addition to the effects of drought, rural
indebtedness, loss of productive assets, and lack of purchasing power
contribute to high food insecurity.
IDPs and Refugees. More than 1.7 million Afghan refugees have been
assisted in returning home through the joint UNHCR and ITGA voluntary
repatriation program that began on March 1. UNHCR expects more than two
million Afghans to return home in 2002.
More than 1.5 million Afghans have voluntarily returned from Pakistan
since March 1. Kabul and Nangarhar provinces in the east have together
absorbed nearly two out of every three returnees. By September 22, UNHCR
had closed all voluntary returnee registration centers in Islamabad,
Quetta, and Karachi due to declining returns. The Takhtabaig center in
Peshawar, which has assisted the majority of returnees, is currently the
only open return center. A mobile team is also registering families in
Karachi for return. UNHCR attributes the lower number of returnees (down
to 20,000 a week from the peak in May of 100,000 a week) to the coming
winter, a reduction in return assistance, and insecurity in some parts of
the country. UNHCR anticipates fewer returns from the end of October
until spring, when returns may once again increase.
According to UNHCR, more than 210,000 Afghans have returned home from Iran
since its repatriation program began on April 9. UNHCR has temporarily
suspended refugee return operations at the southern Milak-Zaranj border
crossing until the security situation improves. During the suspension,
refugees scheduled to repatriate through Milak will use the northern
Dogharun crossing.
UNHCR reported that its warehouse in Mashad, Iran, which contained food
and non-food items from UNHCR, UNICEF, and the Government of Iran, was
destroyed in a fire on September 18. The cause of the fire is under
investigation.
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) will transfer camp
coordination to partner agencies, as its funding for IDP camp activities
ended in late September. UNHCR and IOM have helped more than 230,000 IDPs
return to their homes. IOM estimates that despite the success of its
return program, there will still remain an estimated 300,000 IDPs in the
north, central, and western regions that cannot return home due to
continued vulnerability or ethnic persecution.
Health. According to the U.N. System Standing Committee on Nutrition, the
overall nutrition situation within Afghanistan remains precarious.
Continuing drought, physical insecurity, and acute food insecurity in many
areas of the country were cited as factors. A seasonal decrease in
nutritional status over the summer months was expected in line with the
diarrheal season. UNICEF reports that nearly half of Afghan children
suffer from chronic malnutrition.
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 Afghanistan has been 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. On June 7, the USAID/OFDA Disaster Assistance Response Team
(DART) based in Kabul was deactivated to become a USAID/OFDA Program
Office. The USAID/DART had been in the region since June 2001.
USAID/OFDA staff in Kabul will continue to coordinate with the
humanitarian relief community, assess the humanitarian situation, and
monitor USAID/OFDA programs.
New Actions. As part of the overall winterization effort, the following
grants have been made to USAID's U.N. and NGO partners in Afghanistan:
USAID/OFDA has provided WFP with $2.4 million in support of UN
Humanitarian Air Services. USAID/OFDA has provided ACTED with $1,600,000
in support of emergency rehabilitation and winter clearance work at the
Salang Tunnel.
USAID/OFDA has provided ACTED with $800,000 in support of emergency road
rehabilitation in the earthquakle-affected district of Nahrin, Baglan
Province.
USAID/OFDA has provided CARE with $655,209 in support of emergency water
supply and health projects in Kabul.
USAID/OFDA has provided CARE with $700,000 in support of emergency
livelihood programs in Kabul and Ghazni provinces.
USAID/OFDA has provided GOAL with $1.5 million in support of emergency
cash-for-work rehabilitation projects in Samangan and Jowzjan provinces.

cash-for-work rehabilitation projects in the southern and northeastern
provinces.
USAID/OFDA has provided Save the Children/US with $89,045 in support of
nutritional surveillance in seven northern provinces.
USAID/OFDA has provided Shelter for Life with $983,180 in support of
emergency cash-for-work road rehabilitation projects in Badghis and Ghor
provinces.
