At least 13.6 million children are dependent on vital humanitarian aid as a result of the fighting between Sudan’s armed forces and rival Rapid Support Forces (RSF), UN children’s fund UNICEF reported Tuesday. “As the conflict in Sudan continues, the impact on children is becoming more devastating by the day,” said Adele Khodr, UNICEF Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa.
Despite a fragile ceasefire, which was extended for another five days on Monday, humanitarian aid in Sudan is only possible to a limited extent. Many children and families are still without aid, according to UNICEF. Due to the renewed conflict in the country, the organization expects an additional financial need of 253 million dollars (237 million euros). This could pay for the treatment of more than half a million malnourished children.
In the Northeast African country, a long-simmering power struggle escalated violently on April 15. The army, commanded by de facto President Al-Burhan, is battling the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) units of his former deputy, Mohammed Hamdan Daglo. The two generals seized power together in 2021, but later fell apart.
