The Sudanese pound has lost nearly half its value in army-held territory since summer. The economic partition and currency collapse put basic goods out of reach for returning citizens. Civilians face soaring prices and dwindling incomes amid ongoing conflict.

The Sudanese pound fell to 7,500 per dollar in army-held territory during the summer months, cutting purchasing power in half. The collapse comes as authorities struggle to revive an economy fractured by more than three years of civil conflict. Basic commodities are increasingly out of reach for civilians trying to rebuild their lives.
