THE war in Sudan has created the world’s largest and most devastating humanitarian crisis, with over 30 million people needing aid this year, the head of the United Nations children’s agency has said.
With no end in sight to the nearly two-year conflict, Unicef executive director Catherine Russell told the UN security council on Thursday that children in Sudan are enduring “unimaginable suffering and horrific violence.”
An estimated 1.3 million children live in places hit by famine more than 770,000 children are expected to suffer “severe acute malnutrition” this year — and without aid many of them will die, she said.
