Yemen — Rapid Displacement Tracking Update (04 - 10 Aug 2024)

IOM Yemen DTM’s Rapid Displacement Tracking (RDT) tool collects data on estimated numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis from their locations of origin or displacement, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of estimated numbers, geography, and needs. It also tracks returnees who returned to their location of origin.

From 1 January to 10 August 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 2,077 households (HH) (12,462 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

Between 4 and 10 August 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 55 households (330 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma’rib (36 HHs) – Ma’rib City (20 HHs), Ma’rib (11 HHs), Harib (5 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Hajjah.
• Al Hodeidah (18 HHs) – Al Khukhah (9 HHs), Hays (9 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were internal.
• Ta’iz (1 HH) – Al Qahirah (1 HH) district. All displacements in the governorate originated from Ibb.
