Nearly 2.8 million people have fled the war in Sudan, the latest data from the United Nations International Organization for Migration shows.
Some 2,152,936 people are estimated to have been internally displaced, while another 644,861 fled across Sudan’s borders into neighboring countries, according to the IOM’s Displacement Tracking Matrix report published Tuesday. The numbers show an increase of more than 230,000 internally displaced and refugees over a one-week period. “Additional reports of displacement are likely to emerge as the situation becomes clearer,” DTM’s report states, explaining the preliminary estimates.
Some of their passports, they said, were destroyed by the US embassy, where the documents were being held for visa processing when the fighting broke out. Several testimonies and emails reviewed by CNN show that the American embassy in Khartoum destroyed the passports when it evacuated the country on April 22, citing standard procedure to prevent the documents from falling into the wrong hands.
