Sudan Conflict Deepens with Deadly Refugee Camp Attack and Escalating Humanitarian Crisis
A massacre in Darfur's Samsam camp underscores the devastating toll of Sudan's two-year conflict, as aid funding remains critically insufficient.
- The United Nations has declared Sudan's conflict the largest displacement crisis of our time, with 12.7 million people forced to flee their homes.
- A recent attack by the RSF militia on the Samsam refugee camp in Darfur resulted in at least 450 civilian deaths, highlighting ongoing violence against civilians.
- Over 30 million people in Sudan are now dependent on humanitarian aid, with severe hunger and a collapsed healthcare system exacerbating the crisis.
- Only ten percent of the required humanitarian funding has been secured, leaving critical gaps in aid delivery despite enormous needs.
- Widespread reports of sexual violence, including against women, girls, and children, have emerged as the conflict intensifies, with survivors facing limited access to support.
