Sudan Faces Crisis as Aid Struggles to Prevent Famine
Sudan is at risk of becoming a failed state due to a disintegrating civil society and the proliferation of armed groups, warns Jan Egeland, head of the Norwegian Refugee Council. The ongoing conflict between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, along with numerous ethnic militias, has led to a severe humanitarian crisis, with over 10 million people displaced and widespread starvation. Egeland criticizes the global response as inadequate, urging more investment in aid and peace efforts to prevent further catastrophe. Despite peace talks, the conflict continues with fears of ethnic cleansing and genocide.
