This has produced a record high of over 30.5 million refugees globally by the end of 2025, with nearly 83% originating from ten conflict-affected countries. The Sudan civil war alone displaced over 12 million people by early 2026, while violence in the DRC and Myanmar continues to force mass displacement.
