联合国难民事务高级专员公署（UNHCR）周五表示，为逃离战斗和恶劣状况，从苏丹逃往乍得的人数急剧增加，而援助资金未能跟上需求。
GENEVA, Sept 25 - There has been a sharp increase in the number of people fleeing from Sudan to Chad to escape fighting and dire conditions, and aid funding is failing to keep up with needs, the United Nations refugee agency said on Friday.
UNHCR称，过去一周每天有多达400人进入乍得东部，比近几个月来的数量增加了20倍。
More than 400 people a day have been crossing into eastern Chad over the past week, a 20-fold increase from the numbers seen in recent months, UNHCR said.
他们正逃离苏丹的达尔富尔、科尔多凡和青尼罗河地区，这些地区均受到苏丹军队与准军事组织快速支援部队之间持续三年多的内战冲突的影响。
They were fleeing Sudan's Darfur, Kordofan and Blue Nile regions — which have all been hit by clashes between Sudan's army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces in a more than three-year-old civil war.
联合国苏丹局势区域难民协调员马马杜·迪安·巴尔代（Mamadou Dian Balde）通过视频连线告诉日内瓦的记者：“有人告诉我们，他们逃离冲突，逃离空袭，逃离无人机袭击。”
There were "people who tell us that they flee the conflict, they flee the aerial bombardments, they flee the drone attacks," Mamadou Dian Balde, UN Regional Refugee Coordinator for the Sudan Situation, told reporters in Geneva via video link from Nairobi.
UNHCR表示，其今年所需的16亿美元资金中仅有18%到位。
Only 18% of the $1.6 billion funding it needed this year had come in, UNHCR said.
巴尔代说：“这意味着更少的食物，意味着将人们转移到更安全地区的能力降低，意味着他们自我庇护的能力降低。”
“It means less food. It means less capacity for people to be relocated to safer areas. It means less capacity to shelter themselves,” Dian Balde said.
该机构警告称，如果乍得的苏丹难民基本需求得不到满足，可能会产生连锁反应，其分析显示，许多人在多次尝试寻找安全之地失败后，会继续向欧洲迁移。
The agency warned of potential knock-on effects if Sudanese refugees’ basic needs are not met in Chad, saying its analysis shows many move on towards Europe after repeated failed attempts to find safety.
据联合国估计，内战已摧毁苏丹大片地区，导致多达1400万人流离失所，破坏收成并摧毁经济。UNHCR还表示，干旱和其他恶劣条件也在迫使人们迁移。
The civil war has devastated wide swathes of Sudan, displacing up to 14 million people, ruining harvests and decimating the economy, according to UN estimates. Drought and other harsh conditions were also forcing people to move, UNHCR said.
根据UNHCR数据，自冲突爆发以来，近100万难民已越过边境进入乍得，其中今年迄今已有超过5.5万人。
Almost 1 million refugees have crossed into Chad since the conflict began, more than 55,000 so far this year, according to UNHCR data.
在美国总统唐纳德·特朗普政府及其他捐助国过去一年削减数十亿美元对外援助后，UNHCR等援助组织面临严重的资金短缺。
Aid groups like UNHCR face major funding shortfalls after the administration of US President Donald Trump and other donor countries cut billions of dollars in foreign assistance over the past year.
