Famine spreading to two more areas of Sudan’s Darfur: UN-backed experts
- Famine is spreading to two more areas of Sudan’s North Darfur after the paramilitary takeover of state capital El-Fasher
PORT SUDAN: Famine is spreading to two more areas of Sudan’s North Darfur after the paramilitary takeover of state capital El-Fasher triggered mass displacement into surrounding communities, UN-backed experts said on Thursday.
In an alert issued by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), global food security experts warned that “famine thresholds for acute malnutrition have now been surpassed” in the areas of Um Baru and Kernoi, near the border with Chad.
They added that the spread of famine came as the fall of El-Fasher led to “massive displacement of residents and displaced persons into surrounding areas of North Darfur.”
