The ongoing siege on El Fasher in Sudan has led to a severe humanitarian crisis, with thousands of people lacking access to essential resources such as water, food, and medicine. Renewed clashes between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have resulted in at least 27 civilian deaths and displaced around 850 people. The conflict has escalated to a point where the death toll is confirmed to be 15,000, though the actual number is likely higher. The United Nations has expressed grave concern over the situation, with UN relief chief Martin Griffiths warning that Sudan is at a tipping point, and countless lives are at stake. The fighting has also led to attacks on the only operational hospital in the region, exacerbating the crisis and pushing the population towards the brink of famine. More than 2.5 million civilians in North Darfur are trapped in the conflict, according to a civil society group. The information was reported by Mohamed Zakaria from Reuters.
