The United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR) says Sudan is now the biggest contributor of refugees in Africa, with more than four million people having crossed into neighbouring nations since the conflict in the North African country started on April 15, 2023.
Mamadou Dian Balde, UNHCR regional director for East Africa, termed the two-year-old Sudan crisis “the most horrible, brutal conflict that has led to human suffering that has affected more than 13 million people.”
