DTM’s Rapid Displacement Tracking (RDT) tool collects and reports on numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of numbers, geography and needs.

From 01 January 2021 to 6 February 2021, IOM Yemen DTM estimates that 731 households (HH) (4,386 Individuals) have experienced displacement at least once.
