sudan faces famine risk in 14 areas experts say

Sudan is facing an unprecedented hunger crisis that may be about to get worse. Thats according to a global hunger monitor backed by the United Nations on Thursday.

Its latest analysis showed a realistic chance of famine in 14 areas across the country if the war escalates.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) says more than half of the population is experiencing a hunger crisis.

Around 750 000 people are projected to be in catastrophe, the most severe level of extreme hunger.

The World Food Program (WFP) reported that some Sudanese are already eating leaves and soil to survive.
