Protection capacity reductions are taking place within a broader structural shift in humanitarian financing, marked by smaller funding envelopes, sharper prioritization and greater pressure to focus on what is most immediate, visible and countable. This is consistent with the broader Humanitarian Reset agenda, but it creates a specific risk for protection: the functions most needed to keep a leaner response effective and targeted in addressing violence and supporting the most vulnerable people are not being funded. Protection depends on continuity, trust, proximity, analysis and follow-up. Monitoring, community engagement, programming & services, referrals, case management, protection analysis and advocacy are the functions that help identify who is most at risk, where harm is increasing, and how limited resources can be prioritized to reduce it. The report shows that these functions are being reduced as protection faces sustained funding pressure

Live rescues are now rare exceptions. Missing-persons estimates range from tens of thousands (unverified crowd-sourced registries cite 43,000 to 46,000), against no confirmed official figure. The UN is planning against a scenario of up to 10,000 deaths.

Since the adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2286 in 2016 and 09 June 2026, Insecurity Insight has documented over 19,000 attacks on health care worldwide, highlighting the persistent and widespread failure to protect health care in conflict. To mark a decade since the adoption, Insecurity Insight released a landmark report analysing ten years of violence against health care. Drawing on a decade of systematically collected data, Still Under Attack documents the scale, patterns, and consequences of attacks on health care in conflict-affected settings around the world. Among the report’s key findings: More than 3,860 health workers were killed and over 2,500 were arrested or detained between January 2016 and December 2025. Local health workers remain particularly vulnerable, accounting for more than 65% of documented health worker killings. The growing use of armed drones and explosive weapons is contributing to increasing damage to health facilities and to health worker deaths and injuries. Based exclusively on Insecurity Insight’s data collection, the report shows how violence against health care has become increasingly normalised, with severe consequences for civilians, disease response, and the resilience of health systems. The report also provides detailed analysis of perpetrators, methods of attack, and emerging risks, including the growing role of new technologies in conflict. It concludes with recommendations for governments, international organisations, humanitarian actors, and the diplomatic community to strengthen the protection of health care and improve accountability for violations.

Sources: ICRC and Radio Okapi Insecurity Insight’s latest social media monitoring brief analyses public narratives surrounding the 17th Ebola epidemic in the Democratic Republic of the Congo between 15 June to 22 June 2026. Key findings: Politics, not the outbreak, drove the conversation. Comment volume rose 33% on the previous period, but almost entirely on the back of a single statement by an opposition figure linking the DRC’s World Cup performance to governance failures (1,160 comments, 26.5% of the total). Harmful content stayed minimal in posts and scattered in comments. A government attempt to deflect criticism onto an NGO backfired. After a health organisation warned of “dangerous gaps” in the response, the government rejected the criticism as “alarmist” and urged NGOs to show restraint. The backlash was overwhelmingly hostile to the government rather than the NGO, and dominated by the “Ebola business” corruption frame. A cluster of attacks on Ebola facilities and health workers was amplified and reframed online. The incidents are real and corroborated, but their online life was driven by a small network of accounts – and the single highest-reach post had over 400,000 views.

Visit our website for precious briefs**.** Data from Insecurity Insight shows that since 21 May and 21 June 2026, at least 19 incidents of violence against or obstruction of health care impacting Ebola response measures were reported. Two Ebola treatment facilities were attacked and deliberately set on fire and another vandalised, damaging windows and a water supply system, compromising access to drinking water. Health workers were repeatedly assaulted, threatened and violently obstructed from performing their duties.

Utilizando datos recopilados por Insecurity Insight, la Coalición para la Protección de la Salud en Situaciones de Conflicto (SHCC) identificó 28 incidentes de violencia o obstrucción de servicios de salud en Colombia en 2025, frente a los 19 de 2024 y los 18 de 2023.1 Entre los incidentes denunciados en 2025, se produjeron diez ataques contra centros de salud, siete trabajadores de salud fueron asesinados y 15 secuestrados. Es probable que el número real de incidentes y la gravedad del problema sean mayores, ya que es posible que en algunos lugares no se hayan denunciado los ataques contra el sistema de salud y que los cierres de servicios relacionados con el conflicto no se hayan reflejado en los datos, mientras que los recortes en la financiación de la Agencia de los Estados Unidos para el Desarrollo Internacional (USAID) redujeron aún más la presencia de proveedores de salud y el funcionamiento de los centros de salud.

Country: Syrian Arab Republic Source: UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Please refer to the attached file. BACKGROUND Humanitarian operations in Syria are taking place in an increasingly constrained financial environment, shaped by recent regulatory changes, limited banking sector capacity, and ongoing exchange rate volatility. The issue started with the change of the former government and continued during 2025 where many organizations bank accounts’ were blocked for a period and started to resume gradually. Some organizations have not unblocked their assets yet while majority did. in August 2025, an exempted use of foreign currency for humanitarian assistance was introduced by the central bank of Syria (CBS) for next six month ending on 25 of February 2026. This has facilitated the cash flow for many organizations operating in Syria, throw transfers from HQ and neighboring country to Syria by FSPs. When the exemption ended, another one was introduced by MoFA that extended for another six months starting from 19 of April 2026. Few weeks after that, CBS issued a new circular setting all transactions post 15 of May in SYP and leaving a space for external contracts to be paid in foreign currency which caused disturbance to some humanitarian activities due to exchange rate volatility. Post this circular, CWG made a survey to measure the impact on humanitarian operations in the country which is further detailed below. KEY MESSAGES • Liquidity shortages and exchange rate gaps are significantly reducing the value of humanitarian assistance, with losses estimated at up to 25 per cent by the time assistance reaches beneficiaries. • Operational constraints are delaying assistance delivery, with partners reporting delays of several weeks due to withdrawal limits, restricted transfers, and limited banking liquidity. • Liquidity constraints are reducing programme scale, with an estimated 3–5 per cent loss in programming, translating into reduced coverage or lower assistance levels. • Fragmented exchange rate practices are driving inconsistencies in assistance, resulting in uneven transfer values across partners and locations and increasing operational complexity. • Partners anticipate increasing reliance on cash assistance, with a large majority expecting cash needs to grow in the coming months, placing additional pressure on an already constrained system.

OVERVIEW: According to the Viet Nam Disaster and Dyke Management Authority (VDDMA) and the National Centre for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting (NCHMF), on the evening of 4 July 2026, Tropical Cyclone MAYSAK made landfall over northern Quang Ninh. Tropical Cyclone MAYSAK brought Level 8-9 winds with gusts up to Level 12, rough seas, and heavy rainfall. As of 0600H today, Tropical Cyclone MAYSAK has weakened as it moved inland over southern Guangxi Province, China (NCHMF). MOVEMENT & INTENSITY: The strongest wind near the centre of the storm is Level 8 (62-74km/h), gusts of Level 10, moving north-northeast at a speed of about 5-10km/h. (NCHMF) **FORECAST:**According to NCHMF: In the next 12 hours, TC MAYSAK is forecast to move north-northeast at approximately 10km/h as it continues to weaken into a tropical depression then to a low pressure area outside of Viet Nam. HAZARDS: According to NCHMF , as of 0800H on 5 July 2026: Despite weakening, the storm’s circulation continues to affect northern coastal Viet Nam. Observed conditions include Level 9 winds with gusts to Level 11 in Bach Long Vi, Level 8 winds with gusts to Level 10 and 2.25 m waves in Co To, Level 9 winds with gusts to Level 12 in Mong Cai, and Level 8 winds in Cua Ong and Quang Ha. Heavy rainfall was also recorded in Quang Ninh, including 247.6 mm in Mong Cai. Through 5 July, hazardous conditions are expected to persist over the northern Gulf of Tonkin and Quang Ninh coast, with Level 6–7 winds, gusts up to Level 9–10, rough seas of 2–3 m, and widespread heavy rainfall. Northeastern Viet Nam is forecast to receive 100–200 mm of rain, with isolated totals exceeding 300 mm, increasing the risk of urban flooding, flash floods, and landslides. INITIAL IMPACTS: According to VDDMA , as of 0600H on 5 July 2026, TC MAYSAK has caused localised flooding, infrastructure damage, and power outages in Quang Ninh Province, particularly in Mong Cai, although no casualties have been reported as of this report. Details of reported impacts are as follows: No casualties reported; 21 people (8 households) were evacuated from flooded areas in Mong Cai I 30 houses sustained roof damage Approximately 600 ha of aquaculture were inundated Over 850 trees were uprooted or damaged 10 streetlight poles and several vehicles were damaged. Power outages affected the entirety of Mong Cai I from 1900H UTC+7 on 4 July 2026 ANTICIPATED RISKS: The circulation of TC MAYSAK, combined with a moderate to strong southwest monsoon, is forecast to bring moderate to heavy rainfall, with isolated very heavy rain (>140 mm/24 h) across parts of Lao PDR and northeastern Cambodia over the coming days (MRC). PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE: The Government of Viet Nam has implemented precautionary measures ahead of TC MAYSAK, focusing on maritime safety, protection of vulnerable infrastructure, and preparedness for heavy rainfall. Deputy Minister Nguyen Hoang Hiep instructed all agencies and local authorities to maintain a high level of preparedness, highlighting the elevated risk of heavy rainfall, flash floods, and landslides and stressing that there should be no complacency despite the storm’s expected weakening. According to VDDMA, over 56.2K vessels carrying nearly 250K people were guided to safe shelter, while Quang Ninh, Ninh Binh, and Hung Yen imposed sea travel bans. Authorities also implemented safety measures for vulnerable aquaculture areas and critical dike sections. Ministries and branches have issued official dispatches directing their subordinate units to proactively respond to storms and tropical depressions. VDDMA, NCHMF, and relevant authorities continue to closely monitor the situation and issue regular advisories. The AHA Centre will continue to monitor for further developments, in coordination with VDDMA Viet Nam and other potentially affected ASEAN Member States, and issue necessary updates..
