Sudan government returns to capital after three years of conflict

Sudan’s military-led government has returned to Khartoum after nearly three years based in Port Sudan, as Prime Minister Kamil Idris announced efforts to improve essential services for the city’s residents. Following a civil war that erupted in 2023, resulting in significant casualties and displacements, the government aims to restore electricity, water, healthcare, and education. The conflict, sparked by power struggles between military leaders, has drawn international scrutiny and failed peace efforts. Amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis, the UN reports millions displaced and widespread destruction across the city.
