The UN's International Organization for Migration (IOM) said on Thursday that the internally displaced in Sudan as a result of the war could amount to 10 million in the coming days. 

In a statement, the IOM said, "The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is warning that the number of people displaced by conflict inside Sudan could top 10 million in the coming days. The world’s worst internal displacement crisis continues to escalate, with looming famine and disease adding to the havoc wrought by conflict."

It added that around 9.9 million people are now internally displaced in all 18 areas of Sudan, and more than half of them are women with over a quarter being children under the age of five.

The United Nations children's agency UNICEF issued an urgent appeal for action earlier in May to protect children amid escalating violence in Sudan's North Darfur region. Expressing profound concern, UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell highlighted the intensifying violence in North Darfur, particularly in and around el-Fasher city.

The fighting in Sudan broke out in April last year between the regular army, headed by its leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) led by his former deputy Mohamed Hamdan Daglo.

Amid a pending RSF attack against the city of al-Fasher in North Darfur, which threatens the lives of thousands of sheltering people, the Security Council expressed "deep concern" and called for the de-escalation of the crisis and hostilities to curb the worsening humanitarian crisis.
