Sudan's war displaces 14M as cholera outbreak kills hundreds
Sudan is facing one of the world’s most severe humanitarian crisis as the conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces
The World Health Organization (WHO) said on Friday that the crisis in Sudan could worsen in the coming months as the distribution of humanitarian aid and medical supplies remains restricted.
WHO spokesperson Christian Lindmeier said time was running out and 15 million people were in need of urgent health assistance and that diseases such as cholera, malaria and dengue were spreading.
He said medical supplies in the country were estimated at about 25% of the needs, and 70 to 80% of Sudanese health facilities were not functioning due to the conflict.
