Shafaqna English– 15 million children in Sudan require support after two years of war, up from 7.8 million at the start of 2023, the UN’s Children Fund (UNICEF) reported.
UNICEF said violence by warring parties against children, hunger, and disease are surging, while displacement continues to disrupt lives. This is happening as both humanitarian access and funding are shrinking and as the rainy season approaches in May.
“With the rainy season around the corner, children who are already reeling from malnutrition and disease will be harder to reach,” said UNICEF’s Executive Director Catherine Russell.
