Sudan's 2025 death toll could reach 100,000, researchers estimate

Original: Sudan’s death toll in 2025 could be as high as 100,000: how we did the count

Researchers say the number of people killed in Sudan in 2025 could be as high as 100,000, and have published an explanation of the methodology behind their count. The estimate points to the continuing severe human cost of the country's civil war between the army and the Rapid Support Forces. The figure is far higher than many previously cited tolls, drawing attention to gaps in casualty reporting from the conflict.

Why now: The war in Sudan continues with little access for journalists, making new casualty estimates rare and newsworthy.
