A cholera outbreak in war-torn Sudan has claimed the lives of at least 388 people and infected around 13,000 individuals in the past two months. The ongoing conflict between the military and a notorious paramilitary group has exacerbated the situation, with no signs of abating after more than 17 months of fighting.
The disease is rapidly spreading in areas that have been severely affected by recent heavy rainfall and floods, particularly in eastern Sudan where millions of war-displaced individuals have sought shelter.
