Laurent Bookra, a WFP country for Sudan, said, “The WFP has increased its assistance in the last six months and now we are providing food and nutrition support to about 1 million interest citizens in Khartoom.”
“In many regions of the south should have this speed because of the risk of famine.”
Information from Port Sudan said that during a mission in the capital Khartoum, many locals were secluded, badly destroyed and destroyed. He said that pressure on limited organizations would already increase more.
The war between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary rapidly cooperation forces began with the restoration of democracy in the issue of citizen rule in Sudan in 2021.
A relief worker said that communities living in the region, including the front front of the fight, are in very difficult situations.
Sudan has contributed a lot to the effort to the World Food Program, but nevertheless, the UN agency is facing a reduction of $ 500 million to provide emergency food and cash assistance for the next six months.
Country Director Books said that the international community now has to provide financial support, so that the most affected areas can be prevented and Sudan is also necessary to invest from this crisis.
“We should also demand the protection and respect of our Sudanese citizens and supporters.”
Not food or water…
This war, which has been going on for more than two years, has destroyed Sudan’s infrastructure. People are forced to fight with basic needs like clean water.
Meanwhile, several weeks of rainfall have ruined the situation. A deadly disease like cholera is spreading, and one of the three cities in the capital is also reported in the Nile of Omdurman.
Last week, the UN Agency (OCHA) said that the demand for Sudan was constantly increasing due to the displaced and cholera dispersal war due to war.
Directors chests have expressed concern over the current situation and said that it is very important to meet the initial needs of people including food.
He said that in collaboration with the local administration, private organizations, UN agencies and other relief agencies, immediate steps need to be taken to increase the speed of basic services and Sudan.
However, the lack of international cooperation is the biggest obstacle to this work. Because of this, the WFP now had to remove important things like oil and lentils from the amount of relief materials like food baskets.
Supply
Country Director Books said that in the absence of assets in the khartum, nutritious diet for young children and pregnant and breastfeeding women are now out of reach.
Despite these challenges, the UN food agency is assisting Sudan’s 100,000 people every month, which is almost four times higher than the start of 2021. Support is being provided in more cases than ever before.
Local communities are also being provided for a long time, such as cash assistance that helps local markets and re -inaugurate bakery and small businesses.
