  • Cholera outbreak remains active with 841 cases and two deaths reported in April.
  • UNICEF, with partners, reached 1.1 million children with measles vaccination, 286,300 children with malnutrition screening – of whom, nearly 10,000 children received lifesaving treatment, 89,900 children and families with safe drinking water, 103,000 children and caregivers with psychosocial support, and 135,300 children with access to education.
  • UNICEF HAC Appeal for 2025 has a funding gap of USD 37.5 million. The cost of inaction is high: 2 million children risk missing critical vaccination, 572,800 children and families will not have access to safe drinking water, 335,500 people will not be able to access psychosocial support and children with sever acute malnutrition will not survive without the treatment they need.
