The governorates hosting the largest IDP populations are Anbar, Baghdad, and Dahuk (page 2), with a total of 1,523,136 individuals, corresponding to 46% of the total IDP population. A total of 77% of the displaced population (2,561,952) have fled from two governorates only, namely Anbar and Ninewa. DTM included a new displacement period in its current methodology. The sixth observation period extends from 1 March 2016 to date, and is intended to capture displacements caused by the intensification of military operations in Anbar and Salah al-Din. From 26 May to 22 June 2016 the total number of identified IDPs increased by 0.4%, i.e. by 14,016 individuals and the returnee population increased by 4%, i.e. by 27,822 individuals.
