In Sudan, people ‘are eating animal feed’ to survive
A girl prepares food at a displacement camp in El Fasher, North Darfur region, Sudan on July 9, 2025. More than 30 million people in Sudan now require urgent assistance to survive.
Sudan’s two-year war has forced millions of people out of their homes and killed thousands of others and now experts say the biggest cause of death is the lack of food, not guns and bombs.
In el-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, for instance, where a battle has raged in the past one and a half years, the humanitarian crisis has recently worsened, with experts reporting starvation.
