These conflicts are predominantly centered on disputes over land and cause great insecurity and widespread displacement across the region. On 07 July 2021, there was an a�ack by herdsmen in Dabna community of Garaha Ward in Hong LGA of Adamawa State which has con�nued to induce a large-scale displacement towards the neighboring LGAs and Wards. Following this event, rapid assessments were conducted by DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff to inform the humanitarian com- munity and government partners, and enable targeted response. Flash reports u�lize direct observa�on and a broad network of key informants to gather representa�ve data and collect informa�on on the number, profile, and immediate needs of affected popula�ons. Between 07 and 14 July 2021, the recorded displacements involved a total of 5,655 individuals. A total of 70 individuals le� Badakosh ward of Bali LGA in Taraba State to Mbayam Ward of Logo LGA in Benue State and 226 individuals were displaced from Maihula Ward in Taraba state to Nzorov ward in Guma LGA in Benue State.
