Sudan Food Insecurity Reaches 28 Percent
A report from the Global Food Crisis Network identifies Sudan as one of the countries suffering most from food insecurity. Social media users in Sudan have shared videos showing an Egyptian citizen assisting Sudanese people during return journeys, highlighting ties between the two nations. In the Al-Mafaza market in eastern Sudan, videos have also circulated showing a decrease in mango prices. The UN has noted that availability-based food insecurity dropped from 28% to 13% over the last few years, but affordability remains the primary driver of current hunger levels. The UN warns that this war is undoing decades of international development progress in just weeks. Severe food insecurity in Sudan is currently affecting 88% of the population. Previous levels of severe food insecurity were recorded at approximately 28%.
