The ongoing conflict in Yemen, since March 2015, has led to the displacement of more than 3.6 million people (according to DTM's 2018 Area Assessment). DTM's Rapid Displacement Tracking 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 2020 - 18 Apr 2020, IOM Yemen DTM estimates that 11,884 Households or 71,304 Individuals have experienced displacement, at least once.
