UNHCR is pleased to share that the vast majority of Somali arrivals on the outskirts have been relocated to safety.The current population of IFO 2 West exceeds 40,000 and Ifo 2 East nearly 30,000. Relocation ton Kambioos which started much later is nearly at the 10,000 mark already.

UNHCR and WFP are distributing emergency food rations and relief supplies to recent arrivals. Water trucking to the new sites is ongoing while all three hospitals in Ifo, Dagahaley and Hagadera camps are providing health care to the refugees. Primary schools are being run by teachers recruited among the refugee population in the camps. UNHCR is working with the Kenyan authorities to urgently deploy more policemen in the camps to enhance security measures for refugees and aid workers alike. Dadaab is the world’s biggest refugee complex, with its sprawling camps hosting more than 463,000 refugees. Over 190,000 of them arrived this year after fleeing insecurity and famine in Somalia.
