Sudan Conflict Enters Third Year with Worsening Humanitarian Crisis

As fighting intensifies, international leaders face pressure to address escalating atrocities, displacement, and famine in Sudan.

Fighters loyal to the army patrol a market area in Khartoum on March 24, 2025. For nearly two years, Sudan has been ravaged by a war between the regular army and the RSF, a conflict that has killed tens of thousands of people, uprooted over 12 million more and created the world's largest hunger and displacement crises.

Overview

  • The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) recently regained control of Khartoum, marking a significant development in the ongoing conflict with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
  • The conflict has displaced over 12 million people, with 30 million now reliant on humanitarian aid as famine spreads across the country.
  • Both SAF and RSF are accused of widespread human rights abuses, including extrajudicial killings, sexual violence, and the looting of civilian property.
  • International funding for humanitarian aid remains critically low, with only 6.3% of the $4.2 billion needed in 2025 received.
  • Global leaders meeting in London on April 15 are being urged to enforce arms embargoes, support civilian protection measures, and ensure accountability for war crimes.
