In July 2024, desert locusts were primarily found in the central regions of Eritrea, where abundant rainfall fostered robust vegetation growth. These favorable conditions facilitated the egg-laying and reproduction of desert locusts, leading to a slight increase in their population. The monitoring results showed that in July, the total damaged vegetation area in Eritrea was 13.2 thousand hectares, including 2.7 thousand hectares of farmland, 5.5 thousand hectares of grassland, and 5.0 thousand hectares of shrubland (Figure 1), accounting for 0.62%, 0.12%, and 0.38% of the total area of farmland, grassland, and shrubland, respectively. The Gash Barka region experienced the most extensive impact, with 7.9 thousand hectares of vegetation affected, followed by the Debub region, with 4.1 thousand hectares. Additionally, the Semien Keih Bahri region had 1.2 thousand hectares affected.
