An 8-month summary update was issued on 2 September 2012 to update on operational progress eight months into the operation implementation.
The emergency appeal was revised on 2 January, 2013, seeking to reduce budget to CHF 10,439,107 and extending the operation for a further 12 months to October, 2013.
A 12-month summary update was issued on 14 January, 2013, and provided the yearly progress report.

Operations update n°4 informed of a further appeal extension for 6 months to end of June 2015.
This preliminary final report consolidates all the achievements of the response operation over a period of three and a half years. The final financial report is not available due to a delay in the transfer of funds to one of our sub-recipients as well as finalisation of the final National Society financial report for funds transferred during the operation. The final report will be issued in the coming months as soon as these financial issues have been finalised.
