In July, the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) recorded an 8,673 decrease. It is worth noting that IDP statistic figures have been steadily increasing since the resurgence beginning in 2018, from 38 172 in 2017 to 386 454 IDPs, in May 2021. Nonetheless, from May to July 2021, violent incidents continued to be reported, resulting in forced displacements, particularly in the country's northern and central regions.
