For over a year, el-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur, has been under siege by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which have blocked key roads and trapped civilians. The World Food Programme warns that supplies are running out, risking starvation for thousands of families. Prices for essential foods have skyrocketed, and markets and clinics have faced attacks, leading to severe shortages. Civilians are resorting to desperate measures, including consuming animal fodder, while assistance remains critically low and acute malnutrition is rising, particularly among children.
Thousands of families trapped in el-Fasher face starvation as the city remains under RSF siege, with vital supply roads blocked and humanitarian access severely limited.
Prices for staple foods such as sorghum and wheat are 460 percent higher in el-Fasher compared to other areas of Sudan, exacerbating the food crisis.
The daily struggle for survival in el-Fasher has exhausted the coping mechanisms of civilians affected by over two years of civil war in Sudan.
Community kitchens have shut down due to a lack of supplies, forcing desperate families to survive on animal fodder and food waste.
