War in Sudan has left millions of children malnourished, UN warns

THE war in Sudan has left millions of children malnourished since it began nearly a year ago, the United Nations said today.

Fighting broke out on April 15 2023 between the military, led by General Abdel Fattah Burhan, and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), commanded by General Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo.

Close to nine million people have been forced to flee their homes, according to the UN, and more than one million have left the country.
