Sudan is facing a severe cholera epidemic, particularly in the Darfur region, where the outbreak has been exacerbated by ongoing civil war. The conflict has disrupted access to water, healthcare, and humanitarian aid, contributing to the rapid spread of the disease. Over the past week alone, at least 40 people have died in Darfur due to cholera, with Doctors Without Borders warning of its spread across three states. Since the outbreak began a year ago, Sudan has recorded more than 65,000 cholera cases, including approximately 32,000 cases and 426 deaths in 2025 alone, bringing the total death toll to about 1,700. The epidemic is especially severe in overcrowded displacement camps in Darfur. Additionally, neighboring Chad is also experiencing a cholera outbreak, with 642 cases and 39 deaths reported in the Ouaddaï region.
