UNICEF has warned that children in Darfur are facing a new humanitarian catastrophe, two decades after the region first drew global attention. More than 1,500 grave violations against children have been documented in El Fasher since April 2024, with over 4,300 children killed or injured across Sudan. The situation continues to deteriorate, with at least 160 children reported killed and 85 injured in the first three months of 2026.
