In the first seven months of 2020, conflict and natural disasters have resulted in new patterns of displacement, particularly in Marib, Al Hudaydah, Al Dhale'e, and Taizz governorates.

From 01 January 2020 - 29 Aug 2020, IOM Yemen DTM estimates that 21,703 Households or 130,218 Individuals have experienced displacement, at least once.
