Yemen — Rapid Displacement Tracking Update (31 March - 06 April 2024)

IOM Yemen DTM’s Rapid Displacement Tracking (RDT) tool collects data on estimated numbers of households forced to flee on a daily basis from their locations of origin or displacement, allowing for regular reporting of new displacements in terms of estimated numbers, geography, and needs. It also tracks returnees who returned to their location of origin.

From 1 January to 6 April 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 947 households (HH) (5,682 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

Between 31 March and 6 April 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 34 households (204 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma’rib (32 HHs) – Ma’rib City (17 HHs), Ma’rib (10 HHs), Harib (5 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Ma’rib.
• Al Hodeidah (2 HHs) – Hays (2 HHs) district. All displacements in the governorate originated from Ta’iz.
