The number of people seeking refuge and asylum in Kenya's refugee camps fell by 69.8 percent in the first half of 2026 compared with the same period last year, as displacement, mainly from South Sudan and Sudan, slowed.
Kenya registered 5,837 new arrivals between January and June 2026, down from 19,305 in the same period in 2025, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).
