Since 20 October 2024, DTM monitored an escalation in clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) across multiple localities in Aj Jazirah state. The Focused Flash Alert provides a numeric breakdown of displacement due to escalations in Aj Jazirah state, from 20 October to 13 November 2024.
All figures should be understood as preliminary estimates, pending further verification.
- Reported clashes displaced an estimated 343,473 individuals (68,801 households) between 20 October and 13 November 2024.
- Individuals were displaced to 38 localities across seven different states.
- Approximately (44%) of IDPs were displaced to localities in Gedaref state.
- Among the individuals displaced, an estimated 15,129 IDPs were already displaced prior to the escalation, and therefore experienced secondary displacement.
DTM Sudan releases Early Warning Flash Alerts to provide immediate updates on specific incidents or armed clashes that spurred displacement. Early Warning Flash Alerts are distributed via the DTM Sudan mailing list. For more granular information on displacement and mobility, see Sudan Mobility Overview (03).
