Update no 11 Humanitarian Situation in

Libya and the Neighbouring Countries 18 March 2011

Highlights • The IOM Director General and UNHCR High Commissioner provided an update to donors in Geneva on 18

March 2011. They praised the continuous efforts of the Governments and host communities of the neighbouring countries and appealed to donor countries to continue their commitment to the operation. UNHCR/IOM currently work with a scenario of around 1,500-2,500 people crossing from Libya and in need of assistance per day (total for all neighbouring countries). This would translate into future needs of air evacuation in the amount of USD 1,6 – 3,2 million per day. Both the HC as well as the DG underlined the unpredictability of the situation and appealed for flexibility and financial support from donors.

• On 17 March, the U.N. Security Council voted to

authorize a no-fly zone over Libya. The resolution imposes a “ban of all flights in Libyan airspace” except for aid planes; authorizes member states to “take all necessary measures” to “protect civilians and civilian populated areas under threat of attack”; excludes the use of occupation force; toughens the arms embargo by calling on all member states to ‘inspect their territory vessels and aircraft bound to or from Libya”; and widens an asset freeze to include Libyan Investment Authority, Central Bank of Libya and Libyan National Oil Company among others.

• The trend in numbers of people crossing from Libya

into Tunisia remains unpredictable. In Egypt the number of arrivals increased in the past days and the majority of new arrivals now consist of non-Egyptians, including an increased share of Libyans.

• Protection UNHCR held meetings with a group of Somali and Eritreans to discuss potential durable solutions. It was decided that Somali refugees will not yet be considered for resettlement until those Somalis, who are willing to repatriate, are clearly identified. Five Eritrean refugees were interviewed for resettlement. While the number of the camp population is decreasing, UNHCR is restructuring the camp to improve security after reported incidents of sexual assault. The Humanitarian Information Centre for camp residents opened on 17 March. • Humanitarian assistance A total of 21,000 meals were distributed by partner organizations. The construction of toilet cubicles, shower cubicles and latrines is ongoing.

Besides Libyan families, rebel fighters have started to arrive, some of them injured. Some 2,500 – 3,000 currently remain at the border, including some 92 women and 71 children. • Protection Palestinians continued not to have access to the border. A Palestinian man and his daughter have been denied access since 15 March, despite efforts by UNHCR to enable their entry into Egypt. A Palestinian member of a Reuter’s team that crossed from Libya to Egypt on 16 March was denied entry. No news was received that he was allowed in despite both UNHCR and Reuters exerted efforts to enable his entry.

Malmstrőm to discuss proposals of a possible involvement of the EU with regards to future influx, including a burden sharing system, a strengthening of FRONTEX and an extraordinary contribution of EUR 100 million to guarantee adequate reception conditions.

There are currently 260 Ethiopians, Eritreans and Somalis from Benghazi at the border, including a new group of 148 which arrived in the night of 16 March. UNHCR continues interviews.

• Humanitarian assistance A total of 7,000 meals were distributed on 16 March. New arrivals were provided with mats, blankets, food and sanitary material.

Resource Mobilization So far, UNHCR has received contributions in the amount of USD 31,113,856. UNHCR continues to appeal to donors for cash contributions towards the UNHCR supplementary budget. In addition, IOM and UNHCR continue to appeal for in-kind air donations towards the joint IOM/UNHCR evacuation operation. Given the on-going needs at the border and developments inside Libya, UNHCR is currently revising its budget.

ITALY Arrivals to Lampedusa: The total number of new arrivals since mid-January increased to 11,285 people; 2,800 people currently hosted in reception centers, 2590 of them in the regular and 210 in a provisional reception center.

The Italian Minister of Interior, Roberto Maroni, explained that the current influx is mainly composed of Tunisian nationals but that there may be a similar influx from Egypt and/or Libya in the future. He has a meeting scheduled with EU Commissioner Cecilia
