Sudanese refugee influx into Chad surges 20-fold; UN seeks funding
Al Jazeera·SD · TD·about 12 hours ago
The UN World Food Programme is reducing humanitarian aid to hundreds of thousands in Sudan, citing sharply declining funding. This marks a reversal from prior commitments to scale up assistance in the world's worst hunger crisis, and the cut will likely exacerbate famine conditions. The move reflects a broader donor fatigue and funding gap, with the WFP unable to meet urgent needs.
