A recent assessment by humanitarian organizations in Kouango town, in Ouaka prefecture, indicated urgent health and nutrition needs among internally displaced people who returned to the area. Early December, non-state armed groups (NSAG) had attacked Kouango, forcing about 6,000 people to flee and seek refuge in nearby safer areas in the prefecture. They have since been returning to Kouango, however their health and nutrition situation has deteriorated, with malnutrition widespread, particularly among children. There is also a shortage of medicines and vaccines at the local hospital in Kouango, as well as a lack of kits to urgently treat survivors of sexual violence.
