In January 2024, the Iraqi Council of Ministers announced the closure of the remaining 23 IDPs camps in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq by the end of July 2024. The International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in Iraq launched an Emergency Tracking Tool on Camp departures in April 2024 to track the number of families leaving the camps and their main characteristics.
Between 1 April and 9 May 2024, DTM recorded the departure of 1,241 families from camps following the recent closure of some camps. As of 9 May 2024, DTM recorded the arrival of 993 families out of the total 1,241 departed from camps (80%). Most families arrived to Salah al-Din Governorate (68%) and Ninewa Governorate (30%).
