Humanitarian Appeal
Emergency Situation in Sudan
Violent fighting recently erupted in Sudan, with reports of civilians killed and injured in multiple areas across the country.
Reports indicate a significant rise in the prices of food, fuel, and other essential goods, making basic necessities unaffordable for many people. Despite attempts to establish a ceasefire, civilians are being forced to flee amid the clashes, seeking refuge in neighboring countries such as Chad and South Sudan, where they are in urgent need of essential relief supplies and shelter.
The organization’s teams are working on the ground to receive newly displaced individuals and provide emergency humanitarian assistance. However, as more people continue to flee due to the fighting, urgent support remains critically needed to expand the response efforts.
The organization deployed emergency response teams at border crossing points in Chad and South Sudan.
The organization has intensified the delivery of essential non-food relief supplies such as soap and sleeping mats.
The organization has established reception centers to register new arrivals and identify individuals from the most vulnerable groups.
