UN Agencies Express Deep Concern Over Worsening Violence and Food Crisis in Sudan

America. United Nations humanitarian agencies have expressed deep concern over the increasing violence in Sudan, leading to rapid displacement of civilians and a worsening food crisis.

According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), at least 13 people have died in various clashes in East and South Darfur states. The violence has affected local markets and caused a large number of people to flee their homes. In North Darfur, the price of bread has increased significantly.
