398 buildings have been damaged or destroyed to date in Khartoum State and destruction in NW and South Khartoum has increased.

Major corridors in Darfur have seen a significant decrease (-65%) in mobility since the outbreak of conflict; and

Mobility during 12-25 June 2023 on specific corridors in Darfur changed drastically compared to their pre-conflict average:

The route between El Fasher and An Nuhud has decreased 78%
The route between An Nuhud and El Obeid has increased 75%
Migration out of Khartoum persists with a 51% reduction in estimated population since the start of conflict.
