AFFECTED PEOPLE1 DISPLACEMENT OVERVIEW MAP1

Humanitarian conditions in Iraq are worsening with ongoing insecurity, new displacement and a cholera outbreak affecting several governorates. Nearly 3.2 million people have fled their homes and spread to over 3,000 different locations since January 2014. Close to 400,000 people have returned to newly accessible areas, but have found widespread destruction and continue to require humani-tarian support. Over 8.6 million people in Iraq are now in need of humanitarian assistance. Of these, an estimated 2.3 million people are in areas outside Government control, where access is extremely limited. The growing and protracting needs continue to outpace available funding with the 2015 Humanitarian Response Plan funded at 40 per cent to date.
