Armed clashes on Saturday morning between the Rapid Support Forces and the Sudanese army have exacerbated Sudan's problems, especially at the economic and social levels. The priority of spending for the parties to the conflict will be not education, health or infrastructure, but will be directed largely to armaments and the requirements of steadfastness in this conflict.

If the armed conflict in Sudan does not end soon, it will have very negative consequences on macroeconomic indicators, as well as on the standard of living of individuals and families.
