Urgent aid needed!
Land slide in #Abina Kebele #Telemt District, #NorthGonder Zone, #Amhara region, #Ethiopia
August 25, 2024
________________________
In Abina Kebele (rural precinct) within Telemt district, around the area known as Nola, a disastrous land slide caused the loss of life and destruction of residential homes as well as farm lands. This specific area has been enduring continuous war and aggression for the past few years. The area has also been affected by severe drought recently. Telemt woreda (district) was also particularly impacted by a high number of displaced people due to war and identity based attacks. The majority of the IDPs that were already there are reported to be highly vulnerable where many of them are women and children. With this new disaster, the humanitarian situation in the district is bound to deteriorate even worse. Many aid agencies were not able to address this area citing safety and security as a major concern! Now the humanitarian situation has worsened due to this landslide and if aid agencies local and international do not initiative an emergency aid program for the area, countless lives will be lost again.
Thus far:
📍23 people have died
📍1,775 ha cropland has been decimated
📍 48 residential homes have been destroyed
📍 2,700 people have been displaced.
