Overview
- The IPC says 28,000 people in Nasir and Fangak are in catastrophic food insecurity and calls for an immediate, large-scale response.
- WFP reports access to eastern Nasir has been largely blocked since February, with a verification mission last month securing assurances to reach those populations for the first time this year.
- ICRC figures indicate nearly 2,000 people killed and more than 445,000 displaced this year as violence escalates.
- Heavy fighting and airstrikes have effectively partitioned Nasir, driving tens of thousands into informal sites along the Sobat River and hindering deliveries.
- Flooding, looting and a cholera outbreak are worsening conditions, with 5.97 million people currently facing acute malnutrition and millions of children and pregnant or breastfeeding women at risk by mid-2026.
