Maternal deaths rise in Jabal Marra as healthcare system collapses amid Sudan conflict

In Jabal Marra, Sudan, maternal deaths are increasing due to the gradual collapse of the healthcare system, with hospitals closing, staff emigrating, and funding drying up. The situation reflects the broader humanitarian crisis in areas outside the control of either the Sudanese Armed Forces or the Rapid Support Forces. The collapse is not from direct bombing but from systemic neglect and resource depletion, highlighting the indirect toll of the conflict.
