TL;DR Summary

More than 100,000 people have fled Sudan since heavy fighting broke out between rival forces on 15 April, with a further 334,000 displaced within Sudan. Officials have warned of a "full-blown catastrophe" if fighting does not end. Talks are set to take place between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to negotiate a "stable and reliable" ceasefire. The conflict has worsened the humanitarian crisis in Sudan, with food, water, and electricity running out in Khartoum, and aid supplies being warehoused due to violence. Health facilities have also come under attack, with some being used as military bases.
