On 18 February, a fire broke out in Muna ElBadawy camp for internally displaced persons (IDP), in Maiduguri, Borno State, killing one child and affecting over 15,000 IDPs. The fire also destroyed about 3,000 shelters, as well as water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities in the camp. Properties and valuables were also destroyed. Affected families are being hosted by relatives and friends, as humanitarian agencies mobilize to provide critical assistance. The fire is one of the most destructive in recent months. Muna camp is particularly congested due to the spontaneous clustering of makeshift shelters, increasing the risk of fire outbreaks.
