  • Iom Emergency Needs Assessments Post February 2006 Displacement in Iraq 15 April 2008 Bi-Weekly Report
    IOM EMERGENCY NEEDS ASSESSMENTS POST FEBRUARY 2006 DISPLACEMENT IN IRAQ 15 APRIL 2008 BI-WEEKLY REPORT Following the February 2006 bombing of the Samarra Al-Askari Mosque, escalating sectarian violence in Iraq caused massive displacement, both internal and to locations abroad. In coordination with the Iraqi government’s Ministry of Displacement and Migration (MoDM), IOM continues to assess Iraqi displacement through a network of partners on the ground. Significantly fewer Iraqis were displaced in 2007 than were displaced in 2006, suggesting that internal displacement in Iraq has slowed. However, displacement continues to occur in some locations and the humanitarian situation of those already displaced is worsening. The limited returns that have occurred so far represent only a small fraction of the displaced population. Internal displacement in Iraq continues to be a major humanitarian crisis, demanding both assessment and a targeted humanitarian response. The estimated number of displaced since February 2006 is almost 1,504,000 individuals 1. This figure, combined with the estimated 1,200,000 individuals 2 who were internally displaced before February 2006, results in a total of more than 2.7 million individuals displaced within Iraq to date. BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY ON IRAQI DISPLACEMENT: Displacement Displacement continues to occur due to military operations and generalized violence. The recent insecurity and fighting in Baghdad and the south, especially Basrah, caused low-scale displacement, although the figures continue to be difficult to confirm due to ongoing insecurity and restrictions on movement. Over the past few weeks, more than 100 families were displaced in Babylon and 230 families fled to Wassit from Al-Mada’in district in Baghdad.

  • Confiscated Turkmen Lands and the Justice of Kirkuk's Arabs and The
    Summary of confiscation of the land and demographic changes of the Iraqi Turkmen region* Date: 1 July, 2013 No: Rep.4-F0113 Introduction Iraq is one of the best examples of a non-democratic, multi-ethnic and nationalistic community. As the Israeli threats strengthened and toughened Arab nationalism, the Kurdish nationalism paralleled the Arabic nationalism. Hence, the exposure of the smaller communities to serious assimilation policies, and sometimes to ethnic cleansing, was unavoidable. Unfortunately, as the plight of the Iraqi Turkmen has been neglected by the international community, their territories, population size and their exposure to the atrocities remain unknown. The confiscation of land and the alteration of the regional demography clearly characterize how the Iraqi Turkmen have been subjected to aggressive violations of human rights. Population The absence of reliable data about the population size of non-ruling communities (minorities) is well known, moreover, due to the multi-ethnic nature and the nationalistic atmosphere of Iraq, the population of the Iraqi Turkmen has been extremely underestimated to 2% of the general Iraqi population. The large Turkmen regions easily falsify such an Iraqi statistic. The most reliable estimate which can be made for the size of the Iraqi Turkmen today should be more than two million people. The relatively reliable outcomes of the census 1957 which was announced in 1958 presented the population of the Turkmen of Iraq as 567,000, which made 9%, of the total Iraqi population, while the same census showed that the Kurds constitute 13% of the total Iraqi population.1, 2 Geography The Turkmen of Iraq live mainly in the north and middle of Iraq.
