Since April 2023, Sudan has been devastated by intense conflict between the SAF and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.

A situation report from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED) issued on Oct. 14 indicates that the fighting has claimed over 24,850 lives.

The conflict has also displaced over 14 million people, both within and outside Sudan, according to the latest estimates from the International Organization for Migration on Oct. 29.
