What we don't know
Open questions are tracked here until evidence answers them. The Truism never fills a gap with an assumption.
- The precise number of casualties and the immediate delivery timeline for humanitarian aid.
- Whether El Obeid has the capacity and infrastructure to support the massive influx of displaced families.
- The reporting period and methodology behind the estimate of more than 200,000 newly displaced people.
- How many people were displaced by conflict, by flooding, or by overlapping effects of both.
