A recent report by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) has highlighted the alarming spread of famine in Sudan, primarily attributed to the ongoing war between the military and a paramilitary group. The conflict has not only devastated the country but has also led to the world's largest displacement crisis, affecting millions of Sudanese.
The IPC identified famine in five key areas, including Zamzam, the largest displacement camp in North Darfur province, where famine was first detected in August. Additionally, famine was reported in two other camps, Abu Shouk and al-Salam, as well as in the Western Nuba Mountains.
