Fighting broke out in the capital Khartoum in April 2023
GENEVA - The number of people internally displaced in Sudan due to conflict could soon exceed 10 million, the United Nations migration agency said on Friday, in the world's largest displacement crisis.
"How much suffering and loss of life must the people of Sudan endure before the world takes notice? Isn't 10 million internally displaced enough to compel urgent global action?" said Mohamed Refaat, Sudan Chief of Mission for the International Organization for Migration . The IOM recorded 9.9 million people internally displaced across Sudan this week. Prior to the war, there were already 2.8 million internally displaced people, according to the IOM.
Refaat said that more than half of the internally displaced people in Sudan were woman, and a quarter of them children under five."Funding shortfalls are impeding efforts to provide adequate shelter, food and medical assistance," Refaat said.
