Read the full assessment

Sudan's health system is reportedly near collapse due to ongoing conflict, drone attacks, and climate-related displacement, particularly during the critical planting season. This situation, compounded by a UN arms embargo limited to Darfur, threatens a mass-casualty humanitarian crisis and worsening food insecurity. The claims are partially confirmed with medium confidence.
