About
Khartoum is the capital of Sudan, a country in northeastern Africa that has been embroiled in a civil war since 2023. The conflict has displaced over 13 million people, with nearly 4 million returning to their homes in search of rebuilding their lives. However, they face significant challenges, including damaged infrastructure, chronic need for investment in basic services, and ongoing humanitarian crises. Recent developments include the entry into its fourth year of war, with neither side achieving a decisive victory, and international donors pledging $1.5 billion for humanitarian aid. The situation remains dire, with famine, massacres, and shortages of food and supplies affecting millions. As the conflict drags on, the need for peace and a sustainable solution grows increasingly urgent.
