Starvation warning in war-torn Sudan | BBC News



International aid organisations have intensified their warnings over starvation in Sudan.

Sudan was plunged into a civil war in April 2023 after a vicious power struggle erupted between the army and its former ally, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) – creating one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.

The World Food Programme said it had not been able to deliver food to the city in the western Darfur region by road for more than a year.

The city of El-Fasher has been surrounded by paramilitary fighters from the RSF for nearly 16 months – determined to seize it from Sudan’s army.

Local activists have already begun reporting deaths by starvation in the city, which is still home to about 300,000 people.

  1. All disturbances and strifes anywhere in the world are locally created, mishandled and seized upon by opportunists who don't peace to return and milk situation to their benefit sidelining heavy costs locals and govt.s pay.

  2. This is what happens when tightly knit autonomous communities who hunt, work, and rely on eachother are split by foreign backed military forces. Sad to see the world does not change.

  3. Sudanese babies matter little to the left, their focus is entirely on Palestine because of Muslim propaganda. I doubt most of them could even point to Sudan on a map. Tragic overall, free Sudan.

  4. HoW DaRe YoU RePoRt ThE NeWs HaMaS SyMpAThIsEr/ BiBiC! ThIs OrGaNiSaTiOn Is So BiAS! CaNCeLliNg My SubScriPtiOn AnD NoT PaYinG TV LieCeNcE No MoRE. Im JuSt On HeRe To TeLl YoU AlL ThIs AnD ThEn IlL NeVeR EvEr CoMmEnT On HeRe AgAiN… UnTiL ToMoRrOw

  5. But what is the solution? What should the world do? Should they invade Sudan? Should they try to sneak aid in? Unfortunately, it seems like they have to sort this out themselves. It’s a Third World country. Now, when you talk about Russia or Israel, they are first rate nations, who could bring an end to any conflict whenever they wanted to. So I’m just wondering what you do about Sudan, where the people are fighting amongst themselves.

  6. This world is so sad. Between Ukraine, Sudan and Palestine, I don’t even know what to do. I wish we could help, but Trump is terrorizing our own people. He isn’t going to help anyone else without lining his own pockets.

  7. video only reached 13k views.. if it were about Palestine or Gaza which I am already sick of hearing every day then it would reach 500k – 1 Million AT LEAST. I wish that the world weren't so cruel, people in sudan that would actually benefit from support and help… people need to wake up and realize that the free Palestine movement is a cult, a disease which grows stronger the more suffering happens a round the world. It redirects attention. They even have been caught sharing photos of the war in Yemen, depicting people suffering and saying it came from Gaza.

  8. Killing the native s for steeling of the richness of the country. They even get people from south america and iran to fight for killing women and children for money
    Evil people they are not human. Pure evilness
