According to a UN report, the number of displaced persons worldwide decreased for the first time in a decade to 117.8 million by late 2025. This 5.4 million drop from 2024 is largely due to forced returns despite ongoing instability. UNHCR noted that 14.7 million people returned to their homelands in 2025, but warned that many did so under pressure rather than due to improved safety, risking a new cycle of displacement. Significant displacement continues in Sudan, Ukraine, and the Middle East. https://sambad.in/india-and-beyond/nearly-118-million-people-were-displaced-by-conflict-persecution-last-year-un-says-12027686 #creator program
