The UN's IOM monthly report highlights the continued flow of migrants into Yemen, a country already grappling with a humanitarian crisis. The figure of nearly 100,000 arrivals in six months underscores the scale of irregular migration through the region. The report did not specify the nationalities of the migrants or their routes, but Yemen is a major transit point for migrants from the Horn of Africa seeking to reach Gulf states.
