The humanitarian crisis in Sudan continues to worsen more than three years after the outbreak of war, with millions of civilians facing mounting hardship amid soaring food prices, collapsing public services and a rapidly depreciating national currency.
UN agencies have repeatedly warned of a deteriorating humanitarian situation, citing an increasing risk of famine, rising civilian casualties and the continued displacement of millions of people as fighting persists across the country.
For many Sudanese, the impact of the conflict is no longer measured solely by battles or military advances, but by the struggle to obtain food, clean water and electricity, and by the steady decline in the purchasing power of the Sudanese pound.
Since the conflict erupted on 15th April 2023, Sudan has experienced one of the most severe economic and humanitarian crises in its modern history, with the collapse of essential services, widespread displacement and deepening poverty affecting communities across the country.
In the capital, Khartoum, where the Sudanese army and allied forces regained control of large parts of the city last year, many returning residents have found neighbourhoods struggling with prolonged electricity outages, severe water shortages and unstable markets.
