Sudan sits top of global humanitarian crisis list

An international aid group listed Sudan at the top of a watchlist for global humanitarian crises for the third year in a row, as the country remains embroiled in civil war, according to a report in Maghrebi week on 22nd December.

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) warned that Sudan is the country most vulnerable to a deepening humanitarian crisis in 2026, alongside 19 other nations facing similar risks.

The civil war has seen an estimated 14 million people displaced, including 5 million children, as concerns grow over the escalating risk of famine and disease outbreaks.
