Context
Since the beginning of the conflict in Sudan on 15 April 2023, UNHCR has registered an influx of Sudanese refugees and Chadian returnees from Darfur at border entry points in eastern Chad.
UNHCR field teams in Ouaddaï, Sila and Wadi Fira provinces are working with the Chadian government, CNARR, local authorities, and partners to continue monitoring the situation at the border, and to receive, protect and respond to the urgent humanitarian needs of refugees and returnees fleeing the violence.
