Hunger in Sudan, particularly in Jabal Awliya, has reached alarming levels, threatening famine close to Khartoum. The UN's WFP warns of immense needs due to a brutal civil war that has deteriorated access to essentials like water and healthcare. As battles between the Sudanese Armed Forces and paramilitary groups continue, over four million people are reliant on aid, which has been cut by 70% due to funding shortages. Urgent international action is required to avert famine and support recovery efforts.
The level of hunger, destitution and desperation found in Jabal Awliya was severe, essentially confirming the risk of famine as the civil conflict persists.
The needs are immense; limited access to water, healthcare, and electricity, alongside a cholera outbreak, underscores the urgent demand for international aid.
The WFP is assisting four million people across Sudan but has had to reduce food rations to 70% due to a critical funding shortfall.
The international community must act now to step up funding to prevent famine in the hardest-hit areas and support Sudan's recovery.
