| | Assessments: East Africa Drought, Eritrea: Assessment Trip to Zoba Anseba and Gash-Barka, Situation Reports: ... |
 | | Working with ERREC and local government officials from zoba Anseba, we were able to locate 6 areas where IDPs have congregated (Fana, Shitel, Obelet, Shibukh, Adi Fakai, and Mensura), one distribution site (Hagaz) and one major IDP camp (Deb'at, formerly known as Ziron). |
 | | The IDPs we visited were mostly from the Gash-Barka region, some having already come from other displacement camps, fleeing Ethiopian shelling and bombardment of their towns, villages and homes. |
 | | The one major IDP camp in zoba Anseba, Deb'at (approximately 23 km north of Keren), now houses over 46,000 IDPs, with another 40,000 - 50,000 already located and in the process of being registered for food aid and other services scattered over the Anseba region. |
