Sudan: UN calls for ceasefire during Ramadan amid “specter of famine”. Antonio Guterres called on generals Abdel Fattah al-Burhane and Mohammed Hamdan Dogolo, known as Hemedti, to put down their weapons after nearly 11 months.

The conflict has left thousands dead, created one of the largest population displacements in history with 8 million Sudanese affected, and plunged the country into a humanitarian catastrophe: half of the population needs assistance.
