Sudan: People abandoned amidst horrific violence and humanitarian void in Central Darfur
After a year of war in Sudan, the aid provided to millions of people is a drop in the ocean due to political blockages and a lack of action from the UN and humanitarian organisations.
The agency said this has been in the form of denying aid workers visas and permits to move around once they are in Sudan.
Displaced people in Kassala, eastern Sudan, experience limited access to food, clean water and healthcare services. The scale of the crisis demands urgent and coordinated action from the international community.
Médecins Sans Frontières, also known as Doctors Without Borders, a charity that provides humanitarian medical care on Tuesday said a scale-up of humanitarian assistance is desperately needed across Sudan in both harder-to-reach areas like Darfur and Khartoum, and also eastern Sudan.
