North Darfur displacement: 1,150 people flee four villages
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported that 1,150 people were displaced from four villages in North Darfur, Sudan, between October 29 and October 31, 2026. The displacement occurred in the villages of Mizbat, Oriri, Tari, and Umm Haraz within the Amboro locality due to deteriorating security conditions.
According to the IOM, some affected families moved to other areas within the province, while others crossed the border into Chad. The organization described the security situation in the region as “extremely tense and volatile.”
This movement follows a previous report from late October, which noted the displacement of 895 people from three villages in the same locality. The ongoing conflict between the Sudanese Army and the Rapid Support Forces, which began in April 2023, has resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of approximately 13 million people.
