UNHCR Sudan: Overview of Refugees and Asylum Seekers Distribution & Internal Movement in Sudan (as of 9 July 2023)

Attachments

Introduction:

Sudan continues hosting many refugees and asylum seekers, with 1,144,675 individuals reported at the end of March 2023, including 47% female, 48% children and 6% elderly refugees.

Since armed clashes erupted in Sudan in mid-April, civilians are moving to safer places. Those forced movements are observed within Sudan towards White Nile, East and Port Sudan states (away from Khartoum and the Darfur's) and out of the country into the neighboring countries. The internal as well as the outflow will concern Sudanese, documented and non-documented asylum seekers and refugees, third country nationals, stateless persons, escalating further the numbers of IDP, refugees within and out of Sudan.
