About

Kordofan is a state in western Sudan that has been embroiled in the country's three-year conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary. The region has seen significant displacement, with nearly 4 million people returning home, but facing challenges such as damaged homes, water supplies, health provision, and electricity. Recent events include drone strikes that have killed hundreds of civilians, including recent attacks on markets, schools, and hospitals. The United Nations Security Council has condemned the violence and called for an end to the fighting, while aid efforts are being hampered by the ongoing conflict. The situation in Kordofan is significant due to its role as a new front line in the war and the humanitarian crisis it has created.
