It is difficult to determine an exact number of children who died during the Lost Boys of Sudan crisis.
The term "Lost Boys" refers to thousands of Dinka and Nuer boys who were displaced from their homes during the Second Sudanese Civil War, which began in 1983. Many of these boys were orphaned or separated from their families, and they faced extreme hardship, including starvation, disease, and violence.
While exact numbers are unavailable, estimates suggest that thousands of children perished during their journey to refugee camps in Ethiopia and Kenya. Some estimates claim the number to be as high as 10,000.
It is important to remember that these are only estimates, and the actual number of children who died could be higher or lower. The tragic loss of life during this period highlights the devastating impact of conflict and displacement on children.
