Sudan at catastrophic breaking point, says UN agency

The situation in war-torn Sudan is dire, with famine and floods exacerbating the challenges faced by millions of people. The conflict between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, which began in April 2023, has led to the displacement of over eight million people, with at least half of them being children. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) warns that the conditions will persist and worsen if the conflict and restrictions on humanitarian access continue. The IOM also notes that the war is marked by "appalling levels of rights violations, ethnic targeting, and massacres of civilian populations".
