Events – Agencies

The United Nations UN said it is in the process of finalizing a plan aimed at preventing famine in Sudan.
Deputy Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in Sudan, Toby Harward, affirmed in a press statement that the plan means nothing without better access to conflict areas and the necessary funding and humanitarian resources for its implementation.
The UN official urged all parties to the conflict in Sudan to allow the flow of humanitarian aid to the population in need, while calling on the international community to intensify its efforts before “tens of thousands of innocent people die.”
The Famine Early Warning System Network warned that catastrophic IPC Phase 5 levels are expected among households in parts of West Darfur, Khartoum, and among displaced populations, especially in hard-to-reach areas of Darfur.
