Intense fighting in central Sudan displaces 2,000 people in just days, a UN agency says
The conflict between Sudanese army and Rapid Support Forces in North Kordofan has displaced nearly 39,000 people since late October, according to the International Organization for Migration.
- The U.N. migration agency said Monday that intensified fighting in central Sudan displaced 2,000 people over three days, amid ongoing conflict that began in 2023.
- The war that began in 2023 started when tensions erupted between the Sudanese army and Rapid Support Forces, and Kordofan and western Darfur recently became epicenters, aid groups say.
- In late October, RSF fighters attacked Bara, North Kordofan, killing at least 47 people, and the International Organization for Migration reported displacement from several towns between Friday and Sunday.
- Sudan Doctors Network said the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces collected hundreds of bodies in el-Fasher, Darfur, burying some in mass graves and burning others to conceal evidence, while satellite imagery analyzed on Friday showed body disposal.
- The IOM reports 38,990 people fled North Kordofan between Oct. 26 and Nov. 9, while the RSF claimed fighters massed in Babanusa, though definitive figures could not be confirmed.
