The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has warned that several areas in southern Khartoum, Sudan, are at risk of famine. The warning, issued on Tuesday, highlights the severe humanitarian crisis exacerbating in the region. According to the WFP, the actual needs of the population far exceed the available resources, exacerbated by a funding shortfall. Laurent Bukera, the WFP Country Director in Sudan, emphasized the urgent need for increased support to avert a worsening humanitarian disaster. The Sudanese government is working closely with international partners to address this crisis and deliver necessary aid to affected communities.
