UN Migration Agency: Over 104,000 Displaced Inside Yemen Amid Ongoing Fighting
The International Organization for Migration says Taiz province is the epicenter of internal displacement, with more than 63,000 people forced from their homes.
More than 104,000 people have been displaced inside Yemen as fighting continues across the country, according to the UN's International Organization for Migration (IOM), as reported by Anadolu Agency.
The IOM identified Taiz province as the epicenter of the displacement crisis, with over 63,000 people forced to flee their homes there, the agency said.
The report did not provide further details on the specific causes of the latest wave of displacement or additional breakdowns by region beyond Taiz.
Yemen has experienced years of conflict that have repeatedly uprooted civilian populations, with humanitarian agencies periodically tracking displacement figures as fighting shifts across different areas of the country.
Anadolu Agency reported the figures citing IOM data, though the full scope of the agency's findings, including timeframes and methodology, was not detailed in the available excerpt.
