Senior U.N. officials have urgently called on the Security Council to facilitate humanitarian aid access in Sudan as famine conditions have been confirmed in the Zamzam camp, where at least 500,000 internally displaced people reside. The ongoing conflict, which began in April 2023, has resulted in over 14,000 deaths and displaced more than 10 million individuals, with 26 million facing acute hunger. Sudan's government and Russia have denied the need for Security Council intervention, claiming they are not obstructing aid deliveries, despite evidence of famine. U.N. officials stressed the situation as a man-made crisis, urging immediate action to prevent further suffering. Heavy rains have exacerbated conditions, increasing the risk of cholera and further straining the collapsed healthcare system. The international community's failure to respond adequately has been labeled a shameful stain on collective conscience.
