Dear Difteur-ses,
Two years after the outbreak of conflict in
Sudan in April 2023, the crisis continues to worsen - breaking tragic records:
- Nearly 13 million people forced to flee their homes in search of safety.
- More than 30 million people, or 3 out of 5 Sudanese, in need of humanitarian aid, the highest number ever recorded in a single country.
Sudan is therefore facing one of the biggest hunger and displacement crises in the world.
And beyond mass displacement within Sudan, neighboring countries are also affected as Sudanese cross the borders of South Sudan, the
Ethiopia, Egypt and
Tchad.
Behind each of these numbers are real people, families and communities whose lives are at stake.
Jabir Issa Mohamed, teacher and father of one-year-old Awal, visited an ALIMA-supported health center in Tawila. In a voice tired by the many days of walking in the scorching heat, he tells his story:
"When the war started, people were killed, others fled, including my friends and neighbors. The school where I taught is now a refuge for displaced people, other schools have been turned into military garrisons. There's no teaching anymore."
Thank you for enabling us, through your support, to help these people!
