Sudan War’s Famine Could Kill 10 Million

Mass starvation on a scale not seen in decades looms over Sudan, Africa’s third-largest country. As the war rages on—already claiming an estimated 150,000 lives—the UN has confirmed a full-blown famine, a rare declaration it has made only three times in the past 20 years.

The crisis is most acute in the Zamzam refugee camp near the el-Fasher region, a fiercely contested battleground between the UAE-backed Rapid Response Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). Yet, the famine long feared by human rights organizations is spreading across the country.

In May, the Clingendael Institute warned that hunger and related diseases could kill over 2 million people in Sudan by the end of the year and up to 10 million by 2027.

The RSF continues to gain ground, advancing deeper into southeastern Sudan with a relentless offensive that has displaced 700,000 people. In total, 10.4 million Sudanese—one-fifth of the population—are now forcibly displaced.

Sudan’s strategic position, with access to the Red Sea and influence over the Suez Canal, makes it a focal point for international powers to control one of the world’s most critical trade routes.
