Field assessment teams from the Displacement Tracking Matrix reported on Tuesday that around 500 people had fled the Abu Shouk camp for internally displaced persons (IDPs) in El Fasher locality due to rising insecurity.<\/p>\n
The statement said the IDPs relocated to other sites within El Fasher locality in North Darfur State, while the situation remains tense and rapidly evolving.<\/p>\n
El Fasher, the state capital, has witnessed intense fighting and near-daily shelling, making it a major flashpoint in the conflict. The violence has displaced thousands to nearby areas already under severe resource strain.<\/p>\n
The statement noted that humanitarian access across Sudan faced growing challenges in July 2025 due to active fighting, insecurity, bureaucratic and administrative hurdles, and deteriorating road conditions. \u201cNevertheless, engagement with relevant parties has continued, with cross-border operations maintained.\u201d<\/p>\n
It highlighted ongoing fighting in the Kordofan region along the En Nahud\u2013Al-Khuwei\u2013Um Sumaymah and Abu Zabad\u2013El Obeid routes, underscoring the increasing complexity of ensuring safe humanitarian access.<\/p>\n
\u201cAccess in North Darfur, Greater Kordofan, and the Nuba Mountains remains severely constrained,\u201d the statement continued. \u201cInsecurity has resulted in civilian casualties and hampered relief missions, while bureaucratic obstacles, such as inconsistent travel permits and new requirements, continue to undermine life-saving aid and disrupt humanitarian response planning.\u201d<\/p>\n
It added: \u201cAccess to areas outside active conflict zones, such as the Red Sea, Kassala, and Gedaref states, remains relatively easier, though rising IDP numbers have significantly increased humanitarian needs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
