In January 2026, eight incidents affected humanitarian workers compared to 15 incidents reported in December 2025, representing a 47 per cent decrease. This reduction may be linked to a lower number of humanitarian actors present during the holiday period, the end of the first round of elections, as well as the reduced presence of humanitarian actors due to declining funding.
The majority of incidents (75%) were of a criminal nature, including armed robberies, thefts, and an armed intrusion, illustrating the persistence of an unstable security environment directly affecting humanitarian personnel, vehicles, and residences. One humanitarian worker was injured during an attack at his home. One threat incident and one movement restriction incident were also reported.
International NGOs were the most affected (six incidents, or 75 per cent), followed by United Nations agencies (two incidents, or 25 per cent). The most affected prefectures were Bangui (50 per cent) and Haut-Mbomou (25 per cent).
