Hidden crisis: Why nobody talks about Sudan's devastating internal conflict

While global attention stays fixed on other war zones the devastating conflict in Sudan moves forward without much notice. The fighting between rival military groups started about one-and-half years ago (back in early-2023) and its causing major problems in this north-african nation

The situation shows how big conflicts can stay hidden from worldʼs view: two power-hungry groups keep fighting while common people suffer. The war between General al-Burhan and General Dagalo turned into a non-stop battle thats destroying one of africas biggest countries

The numbers paint a really bad picture of whats happening in Sudan: about twenty-six million people (thats like half of everyone who lives there) dont have enough food to eat. The UN points out an even scarier fact; around ten-million citizens face extreme hunger or famine conditions. This makes Sudan the place with most people forced to leave their homes world-wide; many moving to nearby countries looking for safety

This conflict shows how regional wars can create huge problems that affect millions of people - but still dont get proper attention from international community
