These figures refer to displacement caused by post-election violence, which erupted in June, following local elections in Karangasso Vigue. This estimate corresponds to a caseload as previously reported by the Government of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2016. At the time of production of this report, updated figures have not yet been provided by the authorities. This figure is based on decaying data related to two caseloads: displacement in the Chittagong Hills Tracts and displaced members of the Bihari community. IDMC’s research does not support removing these caseloads as no evidence suggests these IDPs have returned to their place of origin or achieved a durable solution. This estimate is based on data reported directly by the Government of Azerbaijan from which we have subtracted a number of individuals who have returned to their place of origin as reported by NRC. This is a decaying figure that has not been updated since 2005. It includes IDPs from the Artsvashen enclave who have no realistic opportunity of returning to their former place of residence as well as individuals whose current status and whereabouts are unknown or who have not managed to find durable solutions. These estimates include two waves of expulsions of migrants, from Alger and Ouargala to southern Algeria. They occurred in March and December 2016 and were reported by media, based on reports by the Algerian Red Cross. Based on multiple sources, these estimates include both IDPs and returnees to Afghanistan, primarily from Iran and Pakistan. Some returnees have been included in our stock figure based on contextual evidence from partners in the field. This represents a single caseload of members of the Ngok Dinka community, who have been displaced since an incursion by the Sudanese Army in May 2011. UN OCHA reports that these IDPs remain in a situation of displacement since then. It is estimated the number of individuals would only have increased following average demographic trends. Comments
