C. Needs

According to the assessment, 800 people / 150 families need urgent assistance for food and basic non food items, like mattresses, blankets and e.g. also water cans and hygienic kits if planned to be provided.

It is worth to highlight that the most kitchen gardens of Bobodarhon and Saro villages were identified as affected and their population barely meet basic needs. These families should be provided with food assistance.

It is important to underline, that the mud flow channel is full at the moment and cleaning up activities (mitigation work) should be done with involving local population, authorities and technical support (fuel, car oil, diesel - around 10 tons) as soon as possible. 500 meters of irrigation system should be restored as soon as possible, as people in the village have lack access to the pure water.
