The number of migrants in Libya has been increasing since September 2023 and stands at its highest since DTM started operating in Libya. Previously, the number of migrants in Libya had declined as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its socioeconomic impact. Some factors that may explain the increase in the number of migrants includes a rise in the number of Sudanese nationals, particularly in Alkufra and other locations in eastern Libya because of the ongoing conflict in their country of origin. In parallel, DTM Libya also observed an increase in the number of nationals, particularly from Egypt and Sudan, in some municipalities in the east and southwest as a result of greater livelihood opportunities, including in the construction and agricultural sectors.
