In response to the wave of displacement caused by the tribal conflict in May 2017 between Salamat and Misserya tribes in Um Dukhun locality, Central Darfur State; the DTM team was deployed to register a reported figure of 830 households. Out of the initial reported caseload, the DTM team identified and registered 731 households (3,032 individuals). The majority (99%) were displaced in May while the rest were displaced in June. Some IDPs who initially registered in the beginning had left Umm Dukhun town and went to different locations in search of farming and grazing land for their animals. 55% of the registered IDPs live in a new gathering site, north of Um Dukhun town (El Njoom area), and 45% are either hosted by relatives, live in rented houses or are given temporal accommodation by the host communities.
