Sudan is facing a severe humanitarian crisis, with UN officials warning that the country could soon experience the world's worst hunger crisis. Nearly a year of conflict between Sudan's military and paramilitary forces has led to widespread food insecurity. According to the UN humanitarian chief, Martin Griffiths, around 5 million people could face catastrophic food insecurity in the coming months. Aid workers are struggling to feed the hungry amid security restrictions and armed violence. The UN Security Council was informed that more than a third of Sudan's population, approximately 18 million people, are already facing acute food insecurity. The World Food Programme (WFP) is calling for secure access to deliver humanitarian aid to those in need. The ongoing war and international community's lack of action have been criticized, with children already dying from malnutrition.
