Sudan Key Judgements

Since fighting broke out in April, one million people have been displaced, and over 250,000 people have fled Sudan to neighbouring countries. The majority have travelled to Egypt, Chad, Ethiopia and South Sudan. These include Sudanese citizens, South Sudanese returnees, and third-country nationals, including Eritrean and Ethiopian refugees. The number of people fleeing Sudan is expected to increase eight-fold in the coming weeks and months. This displaced population will be at an increased risk of trafficking.
