Sudan internal displacement drops to 8.8 million as returns rise, UN says
In early June 2026, an offensive by a coalition comprising the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement-North triggered major civilian flight in Sudan's Blue Nile region. The International Organization for Migration reported that 59,742 people fled their homes to escape the intense ground battles. This massive new displacement wave countered an otherwise declining national trend in internal displacement, exacerbating the severe humanitarian crisis within the conflict-affected region.
Displaced: 59742
