Overview

  • Over 30 million people in Sudan now require humanitarian aid, making it the largest displacement and humanitarian crisis globally.
  • Recent RSF attacks in Darfur, including the seizure of the Samsam refugee camp, have resulted in mass civilian casualties and intensified regional divides.
  • Both the Sudanese Army and RSF face accusations of war crimes, including deliberate civilian targeting and widespread use of sexual violence as a weapon of war.
  • The territorial division of Sudan is solidifying, with the Sudanese Army controlling the north and east, while the RSF dominates Darfur and southern regions.
  • International aid efforts remain severely underfunded, with only 10% of required resources secured, leaving millions at risk of hunger, disease, and lack of medical care.
