Sudan is facing a record-breaking internal displacement crisis as fighting between the national army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) continues, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported on Friday.
The UN agency described the situation as dire, noting that civilians, including mothers with newborns and students separated from their families, are experiencing extreme hardship.
Funding from the United Nations’ Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) has been crucial in allowing IOM to provide emergency relief and protection. CERF, together with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, is designed to offer rapid humanitarian assistance during crises caused by conflict or natural disasters.
The ongoing conflict has divided control of the country. The RSF dominates most of the western Darfur region, while the army retains authority over parts of North Darfur and the majority of the remaining states, including the capital, Khartoum.
Since the outbreak of hostilities in April 2023, thousands have lost their lives and millions have been forced to leave their homes, creating one of the world’s most pressing humanitarian emergencies.
