The International Organization for Migration announced that Sudan may soon witness the number of internally displaced persons exceeding ten million, while this crisis is considered to be the largest in the world in terms of internal displacement.
The head of the organization’s mission to Sudan, Mohamed Rifaat, expressed his deep concern about what is happening, stressing that every displaced person suffers from a humanitarian tragedy that requires urgent intervention.
Rifaat added that more than half of the displaced are women, and a quarter of them are children under the age of five, stressing the difficulties that relief agencies face in meeting the increasing needs due to the lack of funding that hinders efforts to provide food, shelter, and medical aid.
The organization’s statement explained that Sudan, without immediate international intervention, will face a real catastrophe as famine strikes large parts of the country, and more citizens are forced to flee in search of safety and sustenance, which will lead to more suffering for women and children and expose them to greater risks.
The United Nations previously warned of an imminent risk of famine, with a potential long-term impact on the social and economic fabric in Sudan, indicating that about 18 million people are currently suffering from severe hunger, including 3.6 million children suffering from acute malnutrition.
The number of newly displaced people reached 9.9 million, in addition to the 2.8 million displaced before the war, and the total numbers exceeded 12 million people, with more than two million fleeing to neighboring countries such as Egypt and Chad.
