AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoFlood resilience in Gaza: Mozambique launched emergency works to rehabilitate reservoirs and dams on the Limpopo, Incomáti and Búzi river systems in Xai-Xai, aiming to cut flood vulnerability after the 2025/26 rainy and cyclonic season that affected over 900,000 people. The plan covers Xai-Xai reservoir, Incomáti, Massingir and Macarretane dams, plus Búzi river, with a budget of 990 million meticais funded via the World Bank’s CERC, shifting from emergency response to resilient reconstruction and protecting about 930,000 people and 120,000 hectares of farmland. Seeds for safer harvests: Mozambique also announced $75 million for certified seed purchases for the 2026/27 agricultural campaign, after floods exposed reliance on imported seeds; the government says seed traceability and certification should be operational by September to curb counterfeit supply. Cholera watch (regional): WHO reported nearly 5,000 new suspected cholera and acute watery diarrhoea cases in Yemen since January, with limited access to some areas complicating response. HIV/TB care gap in Palma: MSF says HIV and TB treatment in Palma remains a major challenge after the 2021 attack, with fewer people on treatment than before and ongoing needs for diagnostics, tracing and community follow-up. Cross-border drug crackdown: Tanzania’s DCEA is intensifying efforts to track traffickers who fled abroad, working with partners in Eswatini, South Africa, Mozambique and Zambia. Anti-xenophobia health risk: South Africa’s anti-illegal immigration protests have included attacks on migrant families and reports of migrants being blocked from health services, raising concerns for public health access and community safety.
