- The Government of Iraq’s resolution directing the closure of Iraq’s remaining 22 IDP camps, all in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, by July 30 risks exacerbating humanitarian needs among the more than 150,000 individuals currently sheltering in the camps.
- IDPs returning to their areas of origin continue to experience a lack of livelihood opportunities, protection risks, and poor WASH infrastructure, likely exacerbating humanitarian needs, as of May.
- MHPSS needs remain high among IDPs and returnees in Ninewa Governorate, according to an IOM survey.
