A new report says the war in Ukraine helped push the worldwide number of people left internally displaced by conflict or natural disasters to 71.1 million last year. It was a record high number. The Norwegian Refugee Council’s Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre released its 2022 report on May 11. The report said conflict and violence around the world left more than 62 million people displaced inside their countries by the end of last year. That was a 17 percent increase from 2021. An internally displaced person is forced to move inside their own country. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre's report did not count people forced to go to different countries. By the end of 2022, 5.9 million people had been forced to move inside Ukraine because of Russia's invasion. Syria had 6.8 million displaced by conflict after more 10 years of civil war.
