A recent report issued by the United Nations Office for Coordination warned that the risk of migration between Iraqi governorates is increasing due to climate changes and the exacerbation of drought problems, indicating that some areas in southern Iraq may be subject to inundation due to the rise in the water level of the Arabian Gulf.
The report, titled "Migration, Environment and Climate Change in Iraq", translated by "Al-Iqtisad News", stated that "Basra, Maysan and Dhi Qar, the three governorates that make up southern Iraq, tend to record the largest number of internal displacement caused by water over the past decade, mainly due to water scarcity. Pollution and soil salinity in some villages, especially in Dhi Qar, the residents of up to half of the houses migrated, and the lack of water led to the displacement of nearly 15,000 new displacement cases in Dhi Qar, Maysan and Basra in 2019 and in November, 2021 the International Organization for Migration recorded the displacement of 12 thousand and 348 A person from southern Iraq due to drought."
He added, "About 8% of families in Basra, 3% in Dhi Qar and 13% in Maysan, depend entirely on agriculture, livestock or fishing, and they do not have an alternative source of income such as working in the government or security forces, and these percentages are equivalent to approximately 75,000 people." ".
"The past five years witnessed, many families completely abandoned agricultural livelihoods, as 7% of all agricultural families gave up, including 4% in Basra, 12% in Dhi Dhakkar, 8% in Maysan, and 20% of families in southern Iraq abandoned agriculture after one of its members emigrated in the past five years (a much higher rate than non-farm families), while another 30% per cent indicated that they were considering emigrating. According to the report.
The report warned that "floods are another major danger in southern Iraq, as heavy rains have caused widespread flooding in Basra and Maysan, damaging or destroying homes and displacing entire communities in the affected areas."
And he warned that "the climate threat may lead to floods resulting from rising sea levels. By 2050, the areas in the far south of Iraq (mostly populated in Basra, but also Maysan and Dhi Qar) may be partially submerged as a result of rising sea waters. saline water to groundwater aquifers will further disrupt irrigation and agricultural activities, exert additional pressure on arable lands and cause the displacement of an entire community.
