Humanitarian Appeal
A violent conflict has recently erupted in Sudan, with reports of civilians being killed and injured in multiple areas of the country.
Reports indicate a significant increase in the prices of food, fuel, and other essential commodities, making basic necessities out of reach for many. Despite attempts to cease hostilities, the population is forced to flee amidst the ongoing clashes, seeking refuge in neighboring countries such as Chad and South Sudan, where they are in desperate need of essential relief supplies and shelter.
