The IAEA Director General reported that the nuclear safety and security situation remains highly fragile, with Agency teams at nuclear facilities frequently experiencing air raid alarms and military activity. The GBV-Data Ethics and Technology (GBV-DET) Task Team released updates for August 2026, indicating ongoing efforts in this sector. The Health Cluster also provided an update on partner emergency responses to attacks as of August 31, 2026.

The continued military activity and frequent air raid alarms pose a significant threat to nuclear safety and security. Funding for the humanitarian response remains well below requirements, potentially impacting the reach and coverage of aid efforts.

Over 1.4 million people are internally displaced within the country, and there are 534 refugees. Evacuation transit centers have been active from January to August 2026, indicating ongoing displacement needs.
