IOM calls for increased support to sustain response to Sudan floods

PORT SUDAN – SABA
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) has called for "increased support from donors and international community to sustain response to the rising humanitarian needs and displacement in Sudan compounded by the recent floods."

IOM has said Sudan is suffering "torrential rain" that has been "causing havoc in the war-torn country since June, with warnings that 11 million people are likely to be exposed to exceptionally heavy rainfall in the coming days."

The dam collapse, which claimed at least 30 lives, comes on top of floods that have displaced more than 136,000 people across 14 states, as reported by the IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix. An estimated 47 per cent of those displaced by the floods were already displaced due to the ongoing conflict.

These disaster displacements are further deepening the country’s devastating humanitarian crisis after 500 days of a brutal war.
The conflict in Sudan had damaged civilian infrastructure, including telecommunication networks, water supplies, and roads in the country which further complicated "efforts to respond to humanitarian needs."
