How the Sudan conflict is affecting its neighbours

The consequences of the escalating conflict in Sudan is being felt beyond its borders – as surrounding countries deal with the impact on aid deliveries and an influx of refugees fleeing the violence.

One country in particular that is being hit by the worsening violence is Sudan’s neighbour, South Sudan.

There is a drastic humanitarian crisis there with two-thirds of the population facing hunger, more than 2 million people displaced, and large areas of the country submerged by flooding.
