Conflict in Melit and Kutum localities, North Darfur


DTM Sudan's Early Warning Flash Alerts provide immediate updates on incidents and sudden displacement in Sudan.


On 26 April 2024, clashes renewed between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Melit and Kutum localities, North Darfur. SAF conducted airstrikes targeting RSF positions across Melit town of Melit locality and Al Zurug village of Kutum locality, North Darfur. 


According to field teams, the event led to the displacement of approximately 35 households from Al Zurug village. Affected households sought refuge within Kutum locality.  


There were also reports of deaths in Melit town. 

The situation remains tense and unpredictable. DTM will continue to monitor the developments closely and will provide further information on displacement and population mobility across Sudan, on a weekly basis. The latest DTM Sudan report is available here [ https://dtm.iom.int/reports/dtm-sudan-weekly-displacement-snapshot-28 ].

Disclaimer: Due to the current circumstances, the DTM network is relying on remote interviews with key informants and further verification is not possible at this time.


*DTM Sudan Flash Alerts provide an initial estimation of affected population figures gathered from field reports. All information is therefore pending verification through DTM’s Emergency Event Tracking (EET) and/or registration activities and is not to be used as official figures.
