Sudan faces worsening humanitarian crisis from ongoing civil war

A FRANCE 24 team reported from Sudan in February, highlighting the ongoing civil war that began in April 2023. The conflict, involving the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudanese army, has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and over 12 million displaced. Port Sudan has emerged as the new administrative center, with many government ministries and NGOs moving there from Khartoum. This shift has led to a surge in rent prices as hundreds of thousands seek refuge in the city. The humanitarian crisis continues to worsen, with reports of severe violence, including sexual assaults against children. The situation remains dire as the conflict persists across the country.
