Abstract
On April 15, 2023, military clashes erupted in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Force (RSF), and, although nine months have passed, the military conflict has not subsided. During this time, the lives of the people have been devastated and the country’s key infrastructure, including Khartoum International Airport, has been destroyed. What is happening? And how should we understand this situation? The author was posted in Sudan in February 2021 and fled the country with other Japanese personnel from Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in the midst of the military clashes in April 2023. As someone who has lived in Sudan, the author describes the current situation and JICA’s involvement in Sudan.
