Yesterday a United Nations-backed
report confirmed levels of acute malnutrition have surpassed famine
thresholds in two additional areas of North Darfur in Sudan — Um Baru and
Kernoi.

Civilians across Darfur and the Kordofan have endured isolation, violence,
and the destruction of their homes and livelihoods. Some have lost loved
ones to hunger and conflict-related attacks.

Our teams are reporting the deaths of children due to severe hunger and
unpreventable illness — an unimaginable outcome that no family should ever
face. Even where harvests once offered relief, conflict has made food
inaccessible, leaving people to survive on almost nothing.

Mercy Corps is continuing to deliver lifesaving support across Sudan and
in crisis zones across the globe. [ [link removed] ]Rush your gift now to help families

The latest IPC report findings confirm what our teams are witnessing on
the ground: hunger is worsening across Sudan after nearly three years of
unrelenting conflict. An estimated 4.2 million cases of acute malnutrition
have been reported in 2026, compared to 3.7 million in 2025.

A Mercy Corps team member in South Kordofan describes the conditions for
people forced from their homes by violence:


"During the siege, the cities were cut off and there were severe
shortages of food and essential goods. Medical supplies were not
available, banks stopped functioning, and people had no cash to meet
their basic needs. Hunger spread among families who remained. Some
households depended on support from relatives outside the area, and in
extreme cases people survived by eating leaves and wild plants. There
were reported deaths among children and among people with chronic
illnesses due to hunger and the lack of medicine."


Mercy Corps is calling on the international community to ensure
humanitarian access is protected, civilians are shielded from harm, and
frontline responders are resourced immediately.
