Report
April 2024 marks one year since fighting broke out between rival factions of Sudan’s security force, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), engulfing Sudan in conflict. The conflict has directly killed at least 14,700 people, and injured almost 30,000 more. Due to extensive fighting, at least one-third of the population is displaced, and nearly half the population–25 million people–are in need of humanitarian assistance. In Darfur, mass killings and displacement have led to reports of ethnic violence.
