Insecurity Forces 2,600 Civilians to Flee North Kordofan in Sudan
Worsening insecurity in Sudan's North Kordofan state forced approximately 2,600 civilians to flee the towns of Abu Haraz and Kazgil between May 4 and May 5. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported the displacement as local factions continue to clash, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian situation. The region has seen a sharp decline in stability over the past 48 hours, hindering aid delivery and increasing the vulnerability of local populations.
