AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoAcute Hunger Alarm in Sudan: A new IPC hunger update says nearly 19.5 million people—over 40% of Sudan’s population—are facing acute food insecurity, with 135,000 in parts of North Darfur, South Darfur, and South Kordofan at “catastrophic” levels and 825,000 children under 5 expected to suffer severe acute malnutrition in 2026. War’s New Pattern: The report links worsening hunger to shifting frontlines and drone-heavy attacks that have hit civilian areas, while sieges and city takeovers continue to reshape access to food. Humanitarian Pressure: The crisis is deepening as aid needs surge, and the latest global aid pledge for UN operations includes support for Sudan. Accountability Spotlight: Separate reporting this week also revisits the siege of el-Fasher, describing civilians trapped, starved, and killed—adding fresh urgency to calls for ceasefire and justice.
