The figures were published in a report by the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
According to the report, continued clashes and growing instability across the country have forced large numbers of people to abandon their homes in search of safety.
In October, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) reported that approximately 280,000 people had been displaced in Yemen.
