Due to Swat operation 23,492 housing units were damaged in five districts and two Agencies namely Swat Buner, Shangla, Dir Upper, Dir Lower, Mohmand Agency and Bajuar Agency. Out of these, 11,755 housing units were completely damaged. Swat district was affected the most with damaged share of 34.6% housing unit. More than 329,792 families left their homes from the conflict affected area, of which the share of district Swat was 141,582 (42.9%) families. Hence the district Swat was selected for this research.
