The dire situation in Sudan’s besieged city of El-Fasher | DW News

From DW News.

In Sudan, hundreds of thousands of people face severe hunger and the risk of starvation – due to a blockade that has cut off humanitarian access and food supplies for over a year.

In April 2024 the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces imposed a siege on El-Fasher, in a bid to take the city from Sudan’s army. El-Fasher is the capital of North Darfur, and remains the only city in the region not to fall to the rebel forces.

With supplies now running low, people are forced to survive on animal food.
