UCDP recorded 70 events of organized violence in Sudan in September 2024. The best estimate of deaths in these events is 620. The low estimate is 540 and the high estimate is 676. UCDP counts 226 of these deaths as deaths of civilians. The count for August 2024 was 57 events.

Not all events in UCDP Candidate will make it into the final UCDP GED and new events will be added. The UCDP Candidate is a dataset containing events that have a high probability of being included in the final annual version of UCDP GED.

An incident where armed force was used by an organized actor against another organized actor, or against civilians, resulting in at least 1 direct death at a specific location and a specific date
