Following the ease of COVID-19-related movement restric-tions in the region, outgoing movements in August were increasingly higher (74%) than incoming movements (24%). A total of 5,418 outgoing movements were observed of which 2,659 (49%) were going to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and 1,108 (20%) intended to go to Somalia. 1,931 incoming move-ments were observed, of which 971 (50%) had originated from Djibouti. It should be noted that most of these movements (570) were Ethiopian nationals who were likely returning home.

In August 2020, a total of 7,349* movements were observed across Ethiopia’s five flow monitoring points (FMPs). This repre-sents a 9% increase in daily average movements in comparison with June 2020 when an average of 218 movements per day were observed. However, this is still 37% lower than the aver-age daily movements in Februray which was prior to the emer-gence of the first confirmed COVID-19 case in Ethiopia in March 2020. The average daily movement has been impacted by measures taken to contain the spread of COVID-19 in the region.
