The Natural Hazard Overview provides a summary of reported incidents of displacement in Sudan due to natural hazards, including fires and floods. DTM Sudan reported on increased displacement due to fires between April and July 2024, and increased displacement due to floods between July and October 2024.
Between 01 April and 31 October 2024, DTM Sudan reported 140 incidents of sudden displacement due to natural hazard incidents. Information on earlier reported incidents of fire and flood induced displacement is available in the weekly Natural Hazard Displacement Summary reports, available on the DTM Sudan website.
Highlights
- DTM reported on 12 incidents of displacement due to fires and 128 incidents of displacement due to heavy rain or floods in 16 different states across Sudan.
- The reported incidents displaced an estimated 192,030 individuals (38,406 households).
Note: DTM reports on incidents of sudden displacement due to natural hazards via Early Warning Flash Alerts, published within 24 to 48 hours of reported incidents and distributed via the DTM Sudan mailing list. Figures should be understood as preliminary estimates on displacement due to a specific reported event, and therefore may or may not reflect broader displacement dynamics in Sudan.
