Madagascar - Tropical Cyclone GAMANE (ECHO 05 Apr 2024)
05 Apr 2024  10:37 UTC.


 * Tropical cylone GAMANE has had a devastating impact in Madagascar leaving 33
   communes flooded, 625 900 people affected and 229 000 in need of humanitarian
   assistance as highlighted by the multi-sectoral rapid evaluation by flyover
   led by OCHA on 30 March.
 * For now, the consequences due to the flooding on rice fields and villages are
   more visible than those due to the strong winds, with widespread flooding in
   areas of Northern Madagascar.
 * According to OCHA, the country needs additional resources for the post-GAMANE
   response, including for pre-positioning emergency stocks which are already
   nearly depleted due to the extreme rainfall since January. Access conditions
   by road are very difficult and significant logistical support, by air and
   sea, is required until the roads can be accessed.
 * The floods have succeeded one another in the northern and eastern regions of
   Madagascar, and it is necessary to strengthen risk communication and disease
   surveillance to prevent epidemics (active approach); and to assess the
   cumulative medium-term effects of these successive floods on food
   security/nutrition.
