UN Warns of Critical Malnutrition Crisis in Sudan
United Nations aid agencies warn that Sudan's children are trapped in a critical malnutrition crisis that has "reached emergency levels".
The U.N Children's Fund (UNICEF), the World Food Program (WFP), and the World Health Organization (WHO) said that child malnutrition is being worsened by limited access to nutritious food, safe drinking water, adequate sanitation as well as an increased risk of disease.
The 13-month-long conflict between the Sudan Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces has further intensified the conditions. At least 9 million people displaced in Sudan struggle to receive life-saving aid amid ongoing violence and crippling bureaucracy.
