Countries Pledge Billions to Ease Sudan Hunger Crisis
Donors pledged aid as fighting and hunger worsen, with more than 33 million people in Sudan dependent on assistance, officials said.
- On Wednesday, international officials gathered at the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin to address Sudan's humanitarian crisis, marking three years since the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces began fighting.
- The brutal three-year war has created what aid groups call the world's worst humanitarian crisis, with around 70% of Sudanese living in poverty and 28.9 million facing acute food shortages.
- Global attention has recently shifted toward conflicts in Ukraine and Iran, yet Germany announced pledges running to more than 1.5 billion euros to support the population.
- The Sudanese government called the conference plans "surprising and unacceptable," while neither warring party attended as foreign arms shipments continue fueling the violence.
- Experts fear the conflict could soon spread to neighboring countries such as Chad, prompting diplomats to emphasize that urgent pressure on warring parties to reach a ceasefire is essential.
