The report stresses that the level of grave violations against children in the Sudan remains high, including their recruitment and use by armed forces and groups and rape and sexual violence, especially in Darfur. With over 30 armed groups operating in Sudanese territory, and with the regular shifts in alliances and splintering of those groups, it is a considerable challenge to present a definitive account of parties and violations.
