Officials stated that the ongoing conflict has heightened the variability of risks in current forecasts. This increased uncertainty impacts the accuracy and reliability of projections used for planning and decision-making. The variability in risk assessments reflects changing conditions on the ground, which complicates efforts to predict future developments.

Stakeholders relying on these forecasts may need to adjust their strategies to accommodate a wider range of possible outcomes. Officials continue to monitor the situation and update forecasts as new information becomes available to better inform response efforts and policy decisions.
