The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported that nearly 16,000 people were displaced in Yemen within a single week, as ongoing insecurity continues to uproot families across the country, according to Anadolu Agency.
The United Nations migration agency said the displacement figures reflect a persistent pattern of instability in Yemen, where large numbers of civilians continue to be forced from their homes.
IOM's chief of mission in Yemen was quoted as saying, "Every week, we count thousands more people who have left everything behind."
The statement underscores the scale of ongoing displacement in Yemen, where insecurity has repeatedly forced residents to abandon their homes and belongings in search of safety.
Further details on the specific causes of the latest wave of displacement, the regions most affected, and the humanitarian response were not immediately available.
