Event Tracking

• Nearly 700,000 people have crossed into Chad since the onset of the crisis in Sudan. IOM estimates that more than 164,422 among them are Chadian returnees and expects this number to rise to 204,000 by the end of August 2024, due to ongoing conflict in Darfur and the current suspension of the humanitarian corridor between Adré and Darfur.

• IOM, as the lead agency for the returnee response, collaborates with a range of operational partners including the Government of Chad, UNHCR, OCHA, LWF, PUI, UNICEF, MSF, UNFPA, LMI, ICRC, IRC, ACTED, the Chadian Red Cross, HELP-Tchad, ATURAD, Concern Worldwide, COOPI, INTERSOS, and WFP.

• In coordination with CNARR and humanitarian organizations, IOM has registered 101,347 returnees and identified 365 third-country nationals (from South Sudan, Niger, Ethiopia, the Central African Republic, Burkina Faso, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, and Uganda) in 38 localities in three provinces.

• Most of the returnees currently live in spontaneous locations near the border and are in urgent need of food, water, sanitation and hygiene, shelter, household items, health, and protection.

• IOM is relocating returnees from Adre to the newly developed returnee community of Tongori, Ouaddaï province, where it offers them shelters, WASH, NFI, and Protection/MHPSS assistance. Over 13,000 individuals have so far been relocated. IOM is also developing the site of Deguessa, Sila province, with shelter, WASH, and Protection/MHPSS assistance for the benefit of over 25,000 returnees.

• IOM is coordinating with local authorities and diplomatic representations for the voluntary return to their home countries of third-country nationals (TCNs) from countries including Ethiopia, South Sudan, Nigeria, Niger, and Cameroon previously living in Sudan and displaced to eastern Chad.

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 20 April 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 1,019 households (HH) (6,114 Individuals) who experienced displacement at least once.

Between 14 and 20 April 2024, IOM Yemen DTM tracked 44 households (264 individuals) displaced at least once. The majority of people moved into/within the following governorates and districts:

• Ma’rib (25 HHs) – Marib (14 HHs), Marib City (11 HH) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Marib and Taiz.
• Ta’iz (13 HHs) – Al Makha (8 HHs), Jabal Habashi (5 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Taiz and Ibb.
• Al Hodeidah (5 HHs) – Al Khukhah (3 HHs), Hays (2 HHs) districts. Most displacements in the governorate originated from Al Hodeidah and Taiz.

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

• Ta’iz (16 HHs) – Maqbanah (12 HHs), Sabir Al Mawadim (3 HHs), At Taiziyah (1 HH) districts.
• Ma’rib (8 HH) – Raghwan (3 HHs), Harib (2 HHs), Jabal Murad (1 HH) districts.

Due to an increasing number of evictions announced for families in informal settlements, the International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in Iraq launched an emergency tracking tool in September 2023 to understand the number of affected people and their main characteristics.

This report presents the findings of the data collection in January 2024, where DTM recorded 10,228 families whose eviction has been announced by local authorities. During this round of data collection, DTM identified an additional 30 families who had their eviction announced in December and November 2023. Out of these families, 8 per cent are internally displaced persons (IDPs), 18 per cent have returned to the place where they used to reside before the 2014-2017 crisis forced them to flee (returnees) and 74 per cent of people did not flee their homes due to the 2014-2017 crisis (stayees)

The Climate  induced displacement report  measures climate-induced displacement across central and southern Iraq. Families included in these Emergency Tracking reports are those forced to move locations due to drought, water scarcity, environmental degradation and other climatic factors. As of 15 December 2023, 22,583 families (135,498 individuals) remain displaced because of climatic factors across 12 governorates. Of these, just under half of families are displaced within their district of origin (46%). Slightly more than half of families displaced to urban locations. The latest version of the report includes time trend analysis between 2016 and 2023, as well as a spotlight on those residing in critical shelters.

Between 8 and 14 April 2024, a total of 462 new arrivals were recorded at locations in Adamawa and Borno states.

ETT assessments identified the following movement triggers: improved security (178 individuals or 38%), poor living conditions (124 individuals or 27%), family re-unification (88 individuals or 19%), seasonal farming (45 individuals or 10%), military operations (14 individuals or 3%) and fear of attack (13 individuals or 3%).
