epa11275410 Refugee women from West Darfur wait to get a pack of food for four days from workers of the World Food Programme (WFP) and Red Cross, in a refugee camp in Adre, Chad, on the border with Sudan, 12 April 2024. Most of the refugees are women and children fleeing the hunger crisis because of the war which started on 15 April 2023. According to the UNHCR in March 2024, in one year more than 500,00 Sudanese refugees, mainly from Darfur region, have crossed into Chad looking for safety, 90 percent of them are women and children. As different humanitarian crises are unfolding in other parts of the world, both the UN and NGOs like Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) keep appealing for more aid to reach Sudan and avoid a looming famine situation in the already strained socio-economic context of Chad.

epa10628090 A local boy drives a donkey cart to sell water to South Sudanese returnees who fled the war in Sudan, camping outside the Orthodox Church in the Upper Nile State town of Renk, South Sudan, 14 May 2023. The grounds of the Orthodox Church in Renk are home to some hundreds of South Sudan returnees from the Christian Orthodox minority. They were brought in by transport sent by the South Sudan government. ‘One morning we came and they were all here, they built shelters with tree wood pieces and women's clothes fabric; the challenge now is to provide them with food and water as there is none here’, a church worker said, asking not to be named. The returnees sleep in the open area under extremely hot temperatures, a usual occurrence before the rainy season. Most have come with very little and do not know where they will go next. According to the United Nations, some 200,000 people have fled the conflict in Sudan between 15 April and 12 May 2023. Most of them left towards neighboring countries such as Egypt, Tchad, South Sudan or Ethiopia, and about two million people were internally displaced. On Sunday 14 May, the faithful found solace at mass guided by father Michael and prayed for a solution to their unexpected predicament. Leaving behind them the armed conflict between the Sudanese military and the RSF (Rapid Support Forces) militia, most of the refugees in South Sudan are South Sudanese returnees, part of the some 800, 000 who had previously fled the war in South Sudan and who are now returning to a country which is barely out of conflict itself, with tensions still remaining in many areas.

According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in Sudan, at least 30 people have died after the Arba'at Dam, located approximately 38 km northwest of Port Sudan in Sudan's Red Sea State, was extensively damaged on 25 August due to heavy rains. Some 50,000 people living on the western side of the Dam have been severely affected, according to local authorities. OCHA figures state the floods affecting Sudan since July 2024 had already displaced at least 118,000 people prior to the dam collapse, and 317,000 were already affected across 16 of the 18 Sudanese states.
