Highlights
▪ The humanitarian situation in Sudan continued to deteriorate as the conflict rages on in Khartoum,
Kordofan, Darfur and some parts of White Nile States. Recurring airstrikes, drones, and artillery shelling caused significant civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure.
▪ The security situation in South Sudan’s Upper Nile region has significantly deteriorated, particularly in Nasir, Ulang and Longechuk counties, due to escalating clashes between the South Sudan People's Defence Forces (SSPDF) and the White Army. Intense airstrikes since early March have resulted in numerous civilian casualties, widespread destruction of homes, and mass displacement. Nasir, once a key return corridor from Ethiopia with daily movements of 300–500 individuals, has seen a reversal in movement as returnees flee back to Ethiopia. Border monitoring in Maiwut now indicates an average of 363 people crossing into Ethiopia each day. The general security climate remains tense and unpredictable.
