Sudan: Internally Displaced People
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to help support displaced people in Sudan.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
The Sudan conflict has caused the largest and fasted growing displacement crisis in the world, with almost 13 million displaced since April 2023. On 15 April, the Foreign Secretary announced £120 million of new life-saving aid for this year, to support over to 650,000 people in Sudan. The UK is also playing an active role at the Security Council to help protect Sudanese civilians through public interventions, senior engagements, Council products and sanctions. We continue to push the warring parties take every precaution to safeguard Sudanese civilians.
