Since then, peaceful demonstrations have taken place across the country, at times met with violent 338,185 crackdowns from the TMC. On August 4, following mediation by the African Union Sudanese Refugees in Chad (AU) and the Government of Ethiopia (GoE), the Forces for Freedom and Change UNHCR – January 2019 (FFC) and the TMC signed a constitutional declaration laying out the arrangements for the transitional period that will last for 39 months. • Food security outcomes will likely deteriorate across Sudan through September during 275,891 the annual May-to-September lean season and intensified by the ongoing economic crisis. Sudanese Refugees in Expected above-average June–September seasonal rainfall, however, may lead to South Sudan UNHCR – June 2019 improvements in food security conditions starting in October, according to the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET). * Armed actors report that up to an additional 545,000 IDPs reside in parts 1 USAID’s Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (USAID/OFDA) of the Two Areas under their control. 2 USAID’s Office of Food for Peace (USAID/FFP) 3 U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (State/PRM). State/PRM funding includes assistance to refugees residing in Sudan, which is also reported in the South Sudan fact sheet as part of the South Sudan regional response. 1 CURRENT EVENTS • Widespread anti-government protests and violence against demonstrators in Sudan’s capital city of Khartoum and other areas of the country persisted following the April 11 removal of President al-Bashir and subsequent installation of the TMC. On June 3, security forces broke up the peaceful sit-in in Khartoum, resulting in more than 100 deaths and 700 injuries, international media report. There were also many reports of gender-based violence. For more than one month following the June 3 violence, a nationwide disruption of internet services—compounded with an unreliable phone network and delays in administrative approvals for humanitarian movements and programs— negatively affected relief operations, the UN reports. After mediation by the AU and the GoE, on August 4, the TMC and FFC agreed to a constitutional document that outlines the governance set up during the 39 month transitional period. However, the ongoing economic crisis in the country continues with a large percentage of the population unable to meet the cost of the basic food basket. The situation is now compounded by the heavy rainy season which is causing flooding and destruction of homes in rural areas, cutting off main and secondary roads and rendering movement to humanitarian project sites difficult and dangerous. • The UN released a July–December prioritization document for the 2019 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) for Sudan on July 22. The HRP prioritization plan estimates that 8.5 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance, a nearly 50 percent increase from the 5.7 million people estimated to be in need in late 2018. The plan aims to assist 4.4 million people, highlighting food insecurity and multi-sector assistance for refugees as critical needs. The UN is requesting an additional $150 million in funding, beyond current and expected HRP contributions. To date, donors have provided nearly $340 million, or nearly 30 percent, of the original $1.2 billion 2019 HRP request, according to the UN. INSECURITY AND DISPLACEMENT • There has been an increase in intercommunal violence in recent months in the Darfur Region, with many of the confrontations linked to farmers attempting to access land for farming and being prevented from doing so by armed pastoralists. From June 3–6, tensions in East Darfur State resulted in seven deaths and 35 injuries, and displaced an estimated 4,000 people to the state’s Ed Daein town. Additionally, from June 20–July 4, the UN recorded seven separate incidents of pastoralists assaulting or threatening internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Central Darfur and North Darfur states. At least seven IDPs were injured during the assaults, and several were robbed of agricultural tools. In West Darfur State, there have been similar occurrences of violence around El Geneina and Krenik localities, where farmers have been driven back into IDP sites after attempting to access farm land. The escalating tensions and conflict in Darfur could affect farmers’ ability to plan, consequently jeopardizing food security outcomes in the coming months. • Approximately 6,000 new IDPs arrived in South Darfur State’s Otash IDP camp from South Darfur’s East Jebel Marra Locality from January–May, bringing the total number of IDPs from East Jebel Marra in the camp to an estimated 10,300, according to the UN. The IDPs report that violence and consequent displacement in June 2018 disrupted the cultivation season, resulting in a lack of food that led to their secondary displacement to the Otash IDP camp, according to the UN. • On June 27, the UN Security Council extended the AU–UN Hybrid Operation in Darfur mandate to October, extending the period for the mission’s drawdown. The decision reflects the ongoing political developments in the country and aims to support the transition to a civilian-led government. The extension also follows concerns from humanitarian organizations in Darfur, who have increasingly relied on security escorts to conduct field operations. • On July 16, unidentified armed actors attacked UN Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) peacekeepers conducting a routine patrol in Abyei Area’s Amiet market—a joint market for the Ngok Dinka and Misseriya communities. The attack resulted in five civilian and one peacekeeper death and injured one person. In response, UNISFA deployed additional peacekeepers to the area to enhance security and determine the cause of the attack. 2 FOOD SECURITY • Ongoing cash shortages, currency depreciation, and the effects of the lean season are likely to lead to deteriorating food security outcomes across Sudan through September, according to FEWS NET. FEWS NET projects Emergency— IPC 4—levels of acute food insecurity among IDPs residing in areas of Jebel Marra—a mountainous region encompassing parts of Central Darfur, North Darfur, and South Darfur—and areas under the control of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North in South Kordofan State.4 In addition, Crisis—IPC 3—levels of acute food insecurity are expected in parts of Blue Nile, Gedaref, Kassala, South Kordofan, and West Kordofan states and across most of Darfur and Red Sea State. • June-to-September seasonal rainfall is forecast to be above-average, likely leading to near-average crop production despite high agricultural input costs and fuel shortages. Accordingly, FEWS NET projects that food security will improve starting in October, when the cereal harvests commence and agricultural labor opportunities improve. However, poor macroeconomic conditions in Sudan are expected to continue driving high food prices, resulting in below-average household purchasing power and sustaining atypically high seasonal levels of food insecurity through at least January 2020. • According to the UN’s July–December HRP prioritization plan, approximately 90 and 60 percent of displaced and resident households, respectively, cannot meet food needs and require humanitarian assistance. The plan also estimates that 2.2 million children younger than five years of age are acutely malnourished, including 700,000 children suffering from severe acute malnutrition. From July 10–22, USAID/FFP partner the UN World Food Program (WFP) reached more than 510,000 food-insecure people across Sudan with nearly 6,250 metric tons of in-kind food assistance. USAID/FFP has contributed more than $150 million to WFP operations in Sudan to date in FY 2019. • Desert locusts—which pose a significant threat to crop production—have migrated from Saudi Arabia and Yemen into summer breeding areas of Sudan’s North Kordofan State and the Nile River Valley. Locust swarms are also likely to cross into Sudan from Somalia beginning in October if control operations there are unsuccessful. The Government of Sudan (GoS) Plant Protection Department is actively monitoring the situation and positioning equipment and supplies in affected or at-risk areas of the country. USAID continues to provide technical support to pest control actors in Sudan and the region.

  • Internal Displacement in Sudan
    Internal Displacement in Sudan Background paper prepared for the Mission to Sudan of the Senior Inter-Agency Network on Internal Displacement 2-13 April 2002 Norwegian Refugee Council/Global IDP Project Chemin Moïse Duboule, 59 1209 Geneva - Switzerland Tel: + 41 22 799 0700 Fax: + 41 22 799 0701 E-mail : [email protected] Briefing paper for Sudan mission 2-13 April 2002 2 ______________________________________________________________________ Introduction More than thirty years of civil war and inter tribal conflicts have caused tremendous suffering for the civilian Sudanese population. Since the conflict escalated in 1983 there have been an estimated two million war-related deaths and reliable sources estimate that 4 million or more remain internally displaced – with little prospect for large-scale returns in the near future. During recent years there has been a major expansion of oil production inside the conflict area. This has become closely linked with increased displacement as civilians have been forced to move as the conflict has escalated in these areas. Access problems in areas such as the Nuba Mountains, Bahr al Ghazal, Western Upper Nile/Unity State, Eastern Equatoria and southern Blue Nile continuously limit the opportunity to reach the displaced with humanitarian assistance, and there are regular reports of IDPs being exposed to gross violations of fundamental human rights and the rules of war – including relief facilities being targeted by aerial bombing (ICG 2002 p3; UN November 2001 p52). Common problems of quantifying IDP populations is further complicated in Sudan by traditional nomadic migration patterns, as well as movements related to people searching for emergency assistance due to sustained drought problems and even occasional floods.

    United Nations S/2019/44 Security Council Distr.: General 14 January 2019 Original: English African Union-United Nations Hybrid Operation in Darfur Report of the Secretary-General I. Introduction 1. The present report is submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 2429 (2018), by which the Council extended the mandate of the African Union-United Nations Hybrid Operation in Darfur (UNAMID) until 30 June 2019 and requested me to report, every 90 days, on its implementation. The report provides an update on and analysis of the conflict, the political situation and the operational environment in Darfur for the period from 4 October 2018 to 3 January 2019. It outlines activities undertaken in accordance with the indicators of achievement for the benchmarks for the mission’s exit and highlights the main challenges to the effective implementation of the mandate. It also provides an update on the progress made by UNAMID in implementing the recommendations contained in the special report of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission and the Secretary-General of the United Nations on the strategic review of UNAMID (S/2018/530). II. Conflict analysis 2. The security situation in Darfur has remained relatively stable, except for intermittent clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Sudan Liberation Army/Abdul Wahid (SLA/AW) faction in Jebel Marra that resulted in civilian displacement. No major episodes of intercommunal violence were reported. Incidents of crop destruction, which often spark local-level confrontations, were also on the decline. The reduction in the number of incidents of intercommunal violence corresponds to the overall decrease in counter-insurgency operations and associated militia mobilization, in addition to the concerted efforts of UNAMID, the United Nations country team, national and local authorities and communities to resolve disputes and pursue peaceful coexistence.

  • KEY FACTS South Sudanese Refugee Arrivals in East Darfur
    KEY FACTS Since late January 2016, there was a influx of South Sudanese refugees fleeing into Sudan and settling for the first time in large numbers in East Darfur State. In nine months, the refugee population in the state increased from 164 individuals (December 2015) to over 54,000 refugees (30 September). The South Sudanese arrivals are highly mobile and spread out across East Darfur, living in areas including the newly established Kario camp, Khor Omer, El Ferdous Raja old camp, Abu Jabra, Adila, and Assalaya. These areas are underserved and often difficult to access, making the provision of assistance by humanitarian partners challenging. Continuing conflict and food insecurity in South Sudan are two of the main drivers of the displacement, with emergency levels of acute food insecurity and malnutrition in the border states of Northern Bahr El Ghazal, Unity and Warrap. With the continuing insecurity in South Sudan, a steady influx of refugees into Sudan is expected to continue. The Government of Sudan has maintained an open border policy, allowing safe and unrestricted access to its territory for those fleeing the conflict in South Sudan, and has ensured their immediate protection and safety within its borders. The Four Freedoms Agreement is supported by the President of Sudan and allows South Sudanese to move, reside, work and own property in Sudan. On 1 September, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and Sudan’s Commissioner of Refugees (COR) as a framework on protection and assistance for South Sudanese refugees, which clarifies their status as refugees and COR’s role in coordinating the response on behalf of the government.

  • Six-Month Trade and Market Bulletin • East Darfur
    Six-month Trade and Market Bulletin East Darfur Darfur Development and Reconstruction Agency Covering March to August 2016 • www.dra-sudan.org • [email protected] Headlines: • Cereal prices in East Darfur increased during March to August 2016, and were notably higher than the same time last year. This was due to high consumption (including for horses in Ed Daien) following a poor harvest in 2015, increased demand from refugees from South Sudan, and the informal cross-border trade in sorghum to South Sudan. • Sheep prices generally increased, especially from June/July in most monitored markets in East Darfur, due to high demand for Eid El Adha, and the purchase of sheep by Omdurman traders for export to Saudi Arabia. Cattle prices decreased due to poor pasture and therefore poor quality animals brought to market. • Onion prices increased seasonally, and were affected by high transportation costs from Central Sudan. • Groundnut prices generally decreased during March-August 2016, with competition from cheap imported cooking oil, although the price rose in Ed Daein market in May due to high demand for groundnut-cake, locally and from Central Sudan. Small-scale groundnut mills are flourishing while many of the large-scale ones are not functioning. • The El Ingaz Road through El Fashir is the main trading route for heavy transportation while tribal conflict blocks the direct road to Central Sudan. The El Ingaz road between El Fashir and Ed Daien, and other trade routes within and out of East Darfur were affected by heavy rainfall and Wadis flooding during July and August 2016. • The main daily labouring opportunities were construction and building work, agricultural operations and domestic work.

  • Resource Conflict As a Factor in the Darfur Crisis in Sudan
    RESOURCE CONFLICT AS A FACTOR IN THE DARFUR CRISIS IN SUDAN By: Leif Manger Department of Social Anthropology University of Bergen. Abstract The paper will deal with the broader understanding of the current crisis in Darfur, Sudan. A special focus should be on the major adaptational groups in Darfur and we should seek to develop a perspective that allows us to see the dynamic interrelationships of Darfurian agro-pastoral communities, and how varying external and internal circumstances may produce peaceful relationships as well as violent ones. It opens for an understanding of the distribution of groups, seeing their migration around the region. We can see how adaptive processes, such as coping with drought, shift between agriculture and pastoralism etc. have been not only adaptive processes, but have also been characterised by shifts in identities. And we can see how such links affect the boundaries between groups, making them fluid rather than fixed and how the groups, seen as "moral communities", might not necessarily coincide with the boundaries of ethnic groups or eco-zones.Furthermore it allows us to see the development of the contemporary states in a wider perspective, seeing how national boundaries have interfered with existing links between groups, how problems between groups on the borders become nation state problems, and how commercialisation and general modernisation shape the adaptive responses of groups. We also see innovative processes, e.g. smuggling, becoming important strategies for people living on the borderland. Similarly the arming of the states as well as local groups, give many problems an escalating character. Applying the perspective will also show that the groups have not been static entities, captured within their "history" and "traditions".
