“Sudan war enters fourth year”
CORROBORATED
The claim is corroborated by multiple independent sources. Wikipedia confirms the war began in April 2023. A web search result explicitly dated '15 April 2026' states the conflict is entering its fourth year, and another web source titled 'The War Enters its Fourth Year' provides economic data supporting this timeline.
