Sudan : A United Nations organization confirms the displacement of 10 million people as a result of the war

-
The United Nations International Organization for Migration announced on Monday that the number of internally displaced people in Sudan exceeded 10 million, as a result of the war taking place in their country.

The spokesman for the international organization, Muhammad Ali Abu Negila, said in a statement that more than two million Sudanese have sought refuge abroad, most of them in Chad, South Sudan and Egypt, noting that the number of displaced people inside Sudan exceeded 10 million people.

Since mid-April 2023, the army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Mohamed Hamdan Daglo (Hemedti), have been fighting a war that has left more than 16,000 dead, while more than 25 million people need humanitarian aid.

UN and international calls have increased to spare Sudan a humanitarian catastrophe that could push millions to famine and death, as a result of food shortages due to the fighting that has spread to 12 out of 18 states in the country, with about 18 million people suffering from extreme hunger, including 3.6 million children suffering from malnutrition.
