The conflict in Sudan, which erupted a year ago, has led to a devastating humanitarian crisis, with thousands of lives lost, tens of thousands of recent casualties, and millions displaced. The United Nations reports that over 25 million people are facing a humanitarian crisis in Sudan, with 18 million Sudanese facing acute food insecurity, nearly ten times the crisis level of Gaza. The situation has been described as the world's largest displacement crisis, with close to 9 million people fleeing their homes amid repeated attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure, including hospitals and schools, and waves of ethnic violence in Darfur. The UN has asked for $2.7 billion in funding to respond to the humanitarian needs but has received only $155 million, or about 6% of the requested amount. World ministers are set to gather in Paris to discuss ways to meet the dire humanitarian needs as the conflict enters its second year.
