Situation Report

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 18 May 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 1,300 households (HH) (7,800 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once .

Between 12 and 18 May 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 48 households (288 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma’rib (21 HHs) – Ma’rib City (15 HHs), Ma’rib (6 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Ta’iz.
• Ta’iz (20 HHs) – Jabal Habashi (15 HHs), Mawza (3 HHs), Al Misrakh (2 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate were internal.
• Hadramawt (5 HHs) – Al Mukalla City (5 HHs) district. All displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah.

The majority of people moved from the following governorates and districts:

• Ta’iz (22 HHs) – Jabal Habashi (16 HHs), Mawza (3 HHs), Hayfan (1 HH) districts.
• Al Hodeidah (13 HHs) – Bajil (6 HHs), As Sukhnah (5 HHs), Jabal Ras (1 HH) districts.
• Ma’rib (3 HHs) – Majzar (2 HHs), Al Jubah (1 HH) districts.

IOM identified 19 additional households displaced in the previous reporting period, which covered 05 - 11 May 2024, in the governorates of Ma’rib (7 HHs), Al Hodeidah (6 HHs), and Ta’iz (6 HHs). These figures have been added to the cumulative displacement total recorded since the beginning of the year.

Зміни до критеріїв отримання допомоги, які набули чинності в березні 2024 року, обмежили доступ до допомоги на проживання ВПО на основі певного набору профілів соціально-економічної вразливості. Запровадження додаткових критеріїв має на меті забезпечити, щоб соціальна допомога в Україні була здатна підтримати найбільш вразливі верстви населення, як серед переміщених осіб, так і серед населення в цілому. Однак це збільшує ризик виключення деяких вразливих осіб, які можуть втратити доступ до допомоги на проживання ВПО за новими критеріями. Таке скорочення щомісячного доходу домогосподарств може вплинути на здатність вразливих домогосподарств задовольняти свої базові потреби та відновлювати своє життя.

Мета цього тематичного нарису — надати огляд оціночної частки та кількості ВПО, які все ще можуть мати право на отримання грошової допомоги ВПО за новими критеріями. Використовуючи наявні вторинні дані, цей тематичний нарис має на меті надати орієнтовний огляд частки та кількості ВПО, які більше не матимуть права на отримання допомоги, незважаючи на те, що вони є вразливими до скорочення доходів домогосподарств, яке може вплинути на їхню здатність задовольняти базові потреби. Цей документ має на меті інформувати та підтримувати адвокаційну діяльність і розробку програм гуманітарних партнерів на додаток до нової схеми виплати грошової допомоги ВПО.
 

Примітка: Ця записка була переглянута 26 квітня 2024 року, щоб відобразити останні зміни до Постанови 332, які набули чинності 22 березня. Очікуваний вплив тепер відображає найновіші критерії для отримання права на отримання грошової допомоги на проживання для ВПО

On 7 May 2024, armed bandits attacked Sakajiki community in Kaura Namoda LGA, Zamfara State. The incident led to three fatalities and four injuries, affecting 219 homes and 1,097 individuals. Among the affected were 614 children, 259 women, and 224 men. The displaced population moved to neighboring communities within Kaura Namoda LGA, including Arewa, Shiyar Nafiu, and Sabon gari. The attack resulted in the destruction or severe damage of 40 shelters and the loss of many possessions of households.
 
Of all the needs identified, food and non-food items (NFIs) were the most prevalent. Other needs included security, shelter, and health services.

Following these events, DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff conducted rapid assessments to inform the humanitarian community and Government/partners, and to enable a targeted response. 

Nigeria’s north-central and north-west zones are afflicted with a multi-dimensional crisis. Long-standing tensions between ethnic and religious groups often result in attacks and banditry or hirabah. These attacks involve kidnapping and grand larceny along the major highways by criminal groups. During the past years, the crisis has intensified and has resulted in widespread displacements across the north-central and north-western regions.

Between 10 to 14 May 2024, attacks, and fear of attacks by Non-state Armed Groups in Macomia triggered the cumulative displacement of 1,461 individuals/ 537 families. The current Movement Alert #112 reports on most recent attacks in Northen Cabo Delgado. For more information on displacements between January and April, please see {Emergency Tracking Online Dashboard}.

The report aims to present migration dynamics in Kyrgyzstan, drawing upon data from 2022 and 2023 from national and international datasets on migratory movements. It covers recent major global and regional developments which will continue to have an impact on internal and international migration in the country. Collection and analysis of migration data is one of the action points of the Mid-Term Work Plan for 2022- 2025 to implement the Concept of State Migration Policy of the Kyrgyz Republic for 2021-2030. Specifically, action point No. 27 stipulates that a national system of collection of migration-related statistical data shall be developed at the local and national levels. To support the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic to implement this task and contribute to evidence-based migration management IOM Kyrgyzstan Mission has established a Mobility Tracking Matrix team (MTM) in 2022.

The MTM is adapted to Kyrgyzstan context from the global DTM methodology and it is a system that tracks and monitors displacement and population mobility. It is designed to regularly and systematically capture, process and disseminate information to provide a better understanding of the movements and evolving needs.

The Central Sahel area, and in particular the Liptako Gourma region, which borders Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, is affected by a complex crisis involving growing competition over dwindling resources; climatic variability; demographic pressure; high levels of poverty; disaffection and a lack of livelihood opportunities; communal tensions; the absence of state institutions and basic services; and violence related to organized crime and non-state armed groups. The crisis has triggered significant displacement of populations in the concerned countries and is affecting neighbouring countries such as Mauritania and the coastal countries.

As of April 2024, 3,135,099 individuals have been displaced, including 2,636,880 internally displaced persons (84% of the displaced population) and 498,219 refugees (16% of the displaced population). Sixty-seven per cent of the displaced populations (2,100,990 individuals) were located in Burkina Faso, while 14 per cent resided in Mali (442,363 individuals), 11 per cent in Niger (352,553 individuals) and 4 per cent in Mauritania (119,354 individuals). The crisis’ recent spill over to coastal countries, namely Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo and Benin, shows growing number of refugees coming from the Central Sahel and populations internally displaced. As of April, 119,839 individuals were affected by displacement within the four countries (18,897 in Benin, 47,392 in Côte d’Ivoire, 7,238 in Ghana and 46,312 in Togo) of which 30,372 were internally displaced.

La région du Sahel central, et plus particulièrement la zone du Liptako Gourma, qui enjambe le Burkina Faso, le Mali et le Niger, est témoin d’une crise complexe qui comprend comme enjeux une compétition grandissante pour le contrôle des ressources; des bouleversements climatiques; une croissance démographique galopante; des niveaux élevés de pauvreté; l’absence d’opportunités économiques; des tensions communautaires; l’absence de présence étatique et le manque de services sociaux de base; ainsi que des violences provoquées par des réseaux de crime organisé et des groupes armés non-étatiques. La crise a engendré des déplacements importants de populations dans les pays concernés et affecte, par ailleurs, des pays voisins tels que la Mauritanie ou les pays côtiers.  

​En avril 2024, 3 135 099 individus sont déplacés, y compris 2 636 880 personnes déplacées internes (84% de la population affectée) et 498 219 réfugiés (16% de la population affectée). Soixante-sept pour cent des individus (2 100 990 personnes) se situaient au Burkina Faso, 14 pour cent résidaient au Mali (442 363 personnes), 11 pour cent au Niger (352 553 personnes) et 4 pour cent en Mauritanie (119 354 personnes). Le recent déversement de cette crise vers les pays côtiers, à savoir la Côte d’Ivoire, le Ghana, le Togo et le Bénin, fait prevue d’un nombre croissant de réfugiés arrivant du Sahel central vers ces pays et, à l’interne, des populations déplacées. En avril, sont recensés 119 839 individus affectés dans ces quatre pays réunis (18 897 au Bénin, 47 392 en Côte d’Ivoire, 7 238 au Ghana et 46 312 au Togo) dont un total de 30 372 déplacés internes.​

The Central African Republic (CAR), which has experienced continuous volatility for the past two decades, has been riddled by a crisis which ignited in 2012 with a violent takeover of power and has developed into a complex protracted state of permanent insecurity and fragility which has spilled over into neighbouring countries. The crisis is characterized by power struggles amongst elites, the absence of state institutions and public investment, religious and ethnic tensions and disputes for the control of key resources. Moreover, the crisis in Sudan, which started in April 2023, is affecting the eastern part of the CAR witnessing arrivals of displaced populations. As of April 2024, 4,033,831 individuals were affected, including 521,857 internally displaced persons (13% of the displaced population), 2,196,858 returnees former IDPs (54%), 528,521 returnees from abroad (13%) and 786,595 refugees (20%). In the CAR, the largest displaced population consists of former IDP returnees. Refugees from the CAR are primarily hosted by Cameroon (353,153 individuals, or 47% of the refugees), the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) (212,437 individuals, or 28% of the refugees) and Chad (134,184 individuals, or 18% of the refugees). Nonetheless, 15,150 refugees from the Central African Republic are still living in Sudan (2% of the refugees). Since the beginning of the Sudan crisis, a total of 41,795 individuals have entered the CAR. Indeed, the country is home for refugees from neighbouring countries, hosting a total of 35,197 refugees coming from Sudan (24,466 individuals), the DRC (6,440 individuals), South Soudan (2,792 individuals) and Chad (1,499 individuals).

The crisis currently affecting the Lake Chad Basin states results from a complex combination of factors, including conflict with non-state armed groups, extreme poverty, underdevelopment and a changing climate, which together have triggered significant displacement of populations. As of April 2024, Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria were hosting an estimated 6,089,049 affected individuals made up of internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees (former IDPs and returnees from abroad) and refugees (both in- and out-of-camp). Thirteen per cent of the affected population (775,827  individuals) were located in Cameroon, while 5 per cent resided in Chad (296,654 individuals), 9 per cent in Niger (559,212 individuals) and finally, 74 per cent in Nigeria (4,457,356 individuals). Overall, the numbers show increases in IDPs (+1%) and returnees from abroad (+5%), and a decrease in refugees (-2%) since December 2023.

Between 10 to 12 May 2024, attacks, and fear of attacks by Non-state Armed Groups in Macomia triggered the cumulative displacement of 756 individuals/ 269 families. The current Movement Alert #111 reports on most recent attacks in Northen Cabo Delgado.
