In 2024, 45.8 million internal displacements were caused by disasters, nearly double the average of the past decade, primarily due to extreme weather events linked to climate change. The total number of internally displaced people reached 83.4 million, with 9.8 million displaced by disasters alone. Cyclones and floods were the main causes, with significant impacts noted in the US and countries like Sudan and Gaza. Experts emphasize the need for immediate humanitarian aid and long-term climate adaptation strategies to address the growing crisis of displacement. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
