Deportation of Eritreans from Sudan during the 2023 Sudan conflict
The deportation of Eritreans from Sudan (Tigrinya: ኣብ ሱዳን ኣብ እተገብረ ውግእ ኤርትራስ ካብ ሱዳን ምጥራዝ; Arabic: ترحيل الإريتريين من السودان خلال نزاع السودان) is the ongoing forced transfer of nearly an estimated 3,500 Eritreans and Sudanese-Eritreans from Sudan mainly at the border between both countries in the ongoing 2023 Sudan conflict. On 7 May 2023, reports by the Guardian were released that hundreds of Eritreans had been taken away from their refugee camps near the Eritrean-Sudanese border. Several of the citizens being deported were reported to be Eritrean men who had fled the Eritrean army after being conscripted, several women were also reported to be arrested.[2]
During conflicts such as the several Eritrean-Ethiopian clashes since its invasion of Ethiopia in 1998 caused a large set of migrants from the country to flee to neighboring Sudan for safety, these caused Sudan to amass a population of over 100,000 Eritrean migrants and Sudanese-Eritreans with over 75,000 in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum.[3][4] readmore
