En el mes de enero de 2024, el contexto en las fronteras de Tumbes, Tacna y Desaguadero estuvo caracterizado por diversos acontecimientos. En Tumbes, la provincia de Zarumilla ha continuado en Estado de Emergencia por noveno mes, con una extensión de 60 días, a fin de controlar el orden interno y mitigar la migración irregular. En Tacna, continúa en evaluación el plan piloto de accesibilidad de transporte colectivo en la ruta Tacna-Arica, para mejorar y garantizar un paso fronterizo ágil y seguro. En Puno, se registró una disminución de los flujos debido al bloqueo de carreteras que conectan con el Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia (en adelante, Bolivia) y Chile, dado la tensión política que vive Bolivia. Estos bloqueos han generado nuevas rutas para las personas en tránsito, una de ellas es por Assis (Brasil) - Madre de Dios (Perú).

This snapshot on Pakistani migrants’ presence in Libya is part of the outputs of IOM’s EU-funded Displacement Tracking Matrix - Regional Evidence for Migration Analysis and Policy (DTM REMAP) project. Data collected through the Mobility Tracking assessment in Libya identified 5,852 Pakistani nationals in the country between October and December 20231. In addition, 94 flow monitoring surveys have been conducted. Mobility Tracking in Libya gathers data through key informant interviews at both the municipality and community levels on a bi-monthly basis. All 100 municipalities were assessed during the data collection period. Of the total migrants identified by key informants in the country in October and December 2023, Pakistani migrants comprised only one per cent of total migrants in the country; however, Pakistani nationals accounted for 10 per cent of all migrants, including refugees, from Asia and the Middle East. Ninety-five per cent of Pakistani migrants used air travel as their means of transportation to Libya. In addition, the average cost of their migration was 2,333 USD2. Eighty-four per cent of Pakistani migrants were identified in eastern Libya. However, the highest concentration was in Benghazi (74%) in the east, followed by Sirt (9%) in the west and Ejdabia (7%) in the east.

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.
