Prolonged conflict deepens humanitarian crisis in Sudan
A Sudanese woman in Ourang on the outskirts of Adre, Chad, on July 25, 2023. She fled the conflict in el-Geneina in Sudan's Darfur region and says the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) killed her relatives.
In 2024, violent conflict continued to ravage Sudan, deepening the humanitarian crisis that has affected millions of people since brutal clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) erupted in April 2023.
The war, which has claimed nearly 30,000 lives, has displaced more than 14 million people – roughly a third of Sudan's population – creating what the United Nations describes as "the world's largest displacement crisis".
