Global Donors Pledge Over $2 Billion to Address Humanitarian Crisis in Sudan
As Sudan marks one year of civil war, international efforts intensify to provide critical aid and address widespread famine and displacement.
- International donors, led by France, have committed over $2.1 billion in aid to Sudan, aiming to alleviate the severe humanitarian crisis caused by ongoing conflict.
- The conflict has resulted in widespread famine, with estimates suggesting up to a million people could starve if aid does not reach them soon.
- Humanitarian efforts are hindered by both the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces, who have been accused of blocking and looting aid supplies.
- Despite the pledges, the UN's emergency appeal for Sudan remains critically underfunded, having achieved only about 5% of its required budget.
- Efforts to resume peace talks are underway, with international mediators pushing for a ceasefire and negotiations between conflicting parties.
