Civilians who fled the war-torn Sudan following the outbreak of fighting between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) camp at the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) transit centre in Renk, Upper Nile State, South Sudan, on May 1, 2023.
Sudan’s war, pitting the armed forces against the paramilitary group Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has been churning out horrid statistics. Officially, 20,000 people have been killed, 12 million displaced, 2.5 million rendered refugees, and millions of children now stunted due to malnutrition.
