New data from the International Organization for Migration highlights the ongoing displacement crisis, with over 217,000 people fleeing their homes due to intensified fighting on the West Coast. This comes as the country also experiences a significant influx of migrants, tragically underscored by the recent deaths of over 139 individuals, including children, attempting to reach Yemen by sea from Djibouti. Humanitarian presence varies significantly across governorates, with 42 active organizations in Ta'iz, 17 in Shabwah, and only 3 in Socotra.
