Facing Sudan's Despair As War Nears One-Year Mark
The Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group have been fighting to control Africa's third-largest country and its vast resources for the past 12 months - violence that has claimed the lives of more than 10,000 people and sparked the major humanitarian disaster that the UN as "one of the worst in recent memory".
Around 25 million people -- more than half the population -- need urgent aid, including 14 million children who need humanitarian help.

Since the war broke out in April 2023 in Sudan, more than half a million people have crossed into South Sudan using various border crossings such as Renk in Upper Nile state, which is the biggest entry point. The figures continue to grow as the war in Sudan persists. Most of the people arrive hungry, tired, and desperate. In Renk, around 20,000 people are taking shelter with 6,000 in the transit centre and 14,000 in three locations outside the transit centre. Every day, thousands of refugees and returnees relocate from Renk to other areas. Simultaneously, a similar number of people arrive from Sudan in Renk posing challenges to humanitarian efforts in managing and providing support.
