\nSudan Situation: UNHCR External Update 12 – 18 July 2024<\/p>\n

\u2022 In a press briefing on 16 July, the Office of the Spokesperson for the United Nations Secretary- General highlighted challenges organizations in Sudan continue to face in the delivery of critical assistance, including the ongoing insecurity, access constraints, and funding shortfalls. The SG\u2019s office reiterated calls for increased and sustained donor support for the response.
\n\u2022 UNHCR\u2019s first-ever Forced Displacement Survey (FDS), a pilot socioeconomic survey, warns that the ongoing conflict in Sudan is exacerbating the already severe humanitarian crisis in South Sudan for refugees and the communities hosting them. Conducted between April and December 2023 on some 3,100 households in South Sudan, the survey showed that refugee and hosting communities face similar challenges that aggravate protection risks and limit self-reliance opportunities.
\n\u2022 More than 1,000 people fleeing violence in Sudan cross the border into South Sudan daily, overwhelming the already overcrowded transit centres in Renk town. Most are South Sudanese returning refugees who had been living in Sudan since fleeing their country\u2019s own civil war. One of them shares their story.
\n\u2022 Radhouane Nouicer, the Designated Expert on Sudan of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, has sounded the alarm about the dire human rights situation in the country as the fighting spreads to new areas.
\n\u2022 Sudan continues to spiral into chaos, with the humanitarian crisis worsening and the horrific toll of the conflict having on civilians in Al Fasher and other conflict hotspots.
\n\u2022 Over the past three months, up to 143,000 people may have been displaced from Al Fasher locality in North Darfur State due to clashes between SAF and RSF.
\n\u2022 Sudan has the largest internally displaced population in the world, with over 11 million people, including those displaced since mid-April 2023.
\n\u2022 An estimated 7.3 million people have been internally displaced since mid-April 2023, including those who experienced secondary displacement.
\n\u2022 Between 1 January and 30 April 2024, 125 humanitarian partners provided more than 5.2 million people across the country with multi-cluster humanitarian assistance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
