Humanitarian and Recovery Response Plan (HRRP) - for Flood Affected Northeastern Libya (September 2023 to June 2024)


HUMANITARIAN SITUATION Three weeks post-Storm Daniel, north-eastern Libya continues to grapple with a catastrophic humanitarian situation that is unparalleled. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are over 4,006 confirmed deaths and 8,548 people remain missing. Several towns, most notably Derna, were critically impacted, leaving over 100,000 residents in need of assistance amidst destroyed infrastructure and essential services. Thousands of individuals and families, across five provinces and 15 municipalities, of whom at least 40 per cent are children, have been affected. The catastrophe has precipitated widespread displacement, with 42,045 new internally displaced persons (IDPs), including over 16,000 children. Children and their families bore the worst of the storm’s aftermath.
