"Hand of Nature" Framed Canvas

"This piece is dedicated to the lives in chaos as drought and famine ravage communities in Sudan and across the world.

Driven by a relentless conflict, the Sudan remains at the center of the one of the world’s largest regional displacement crisis.

As violence and destruction continue to escalate across parts of the country, particularly in the Greater Kordofan region and in North Darfur State, more Sudanese and other nationals are expected to flee across borders in search of safety during the outlook period. By mid‑September 2025, cross-border displacement had nearly doubled since the conflict began in April 2023, with over 4 million having sought refuge in neighboring countries.

The outlook remains bleak, as fighting is likely to further intensify around strategic towns, with sieges tightening around regional capitals in Kordofan and North Darfur.

While conflict has subsided in Khartoum and other parts of the country, Greater Kordofan in the center-south, has become the epicenter of fighting. Violence has also persisted in North Darfur’s state capital, El Fasher, one of the conflict’s most contested frontlines.

Despite the rainy season limiting mobility in some areas, the growing use of drones and aerial warfare suggests that violence is likely to persist.

Since the previous edition of this report, more than 300,000 additional people – including Sudanese nationals and citizens of other countries – have crossed the Sudan’s borders seeking safety, protection and assistance.

Egypt (1.5 million), South Sudan (1.2 million) and Chad (877,000) remain the primary destinations, owing to historical ties, geographic proximity, accessible border crossings and existing social connections.

Libya has been receiving increasing arrivals from the Sudan, with an uptick recorded since mid‑2024. While precise figures remain difficult to verify, an estimated 357,000 Sudanese refugees have entered the country since April 2023, most of them in Alkufra district, including 77,256 registered by the UN Refugee Agency.

Ethiopia currently hosts more than 76,000 Sudanese refugees, while Uganda and the
Central African Republic have received 87,000 and 36,000, respectively.

People fleeing the conflict are arriving in poor nutritional conditions after enduring challenging journeys. In Chad, the large influx has placed significant pressure on already impoverished and remote eastern provinces.

Between June and August 2025, more than 456,000 Sudanese refugees and Chadian returnees faced high levels of acute food insecurity (CH Phase 3 or above), including nearly 80,000 in Emergency (CH Phase 4). In South Sudan, the situation is even more severe: around half of the 83,000 people who, in July 2025, were experiencing catastrophic levels of hunger and a collapse of livelihoods (Catastrophe, IPC Phase 5) were returnees from the Sudan.

While cross-border movements continue to rise, internal displacement inside the Sudan has declined by an estimated 15 percent compared to January 2025, primarily due to returns to central states where conflict has decreased, including Sennar, Al Gezira and Khartoum.

Displaced populations remain disproportionately affected by severe cuts to aid in a context of hyper-prioritization of humanitarian assistance in 2025."
