In nearly 600 days of conflict, over 3 million people have fled Sudan, seeking safety in neighboring countries including the Central African Republic, Chad, Egypt, Ethiopia, Libya, South Sudan, and Uganda. Each day, as violence escalates, thousands more are forced to leave their homes, deepening a humanitarian crisis that has left millions in urgent need of assistance. UNHCR, in coordination with partners, is providing life-saving support by delivering food, clean water, shelter, and medical care to displaced families both within Sudan and in host countries. However, the scale of this crisis requires even greater support. The international community is urged to act swiftly to push for an end to the violence and scale up humanitarian aid, alleviating suffering and preventing further displacement.
