Sudan: Darfur rebel areas S. Kordofan, Blue Nile, W. Jebels face food shortage due to large numbers of returnees from Sudan & South Sudan


Darfur rebel areas South Kordofan, Blue Nile, West Jebels, facing food shortage and large numbers of returnees from Sudan and South Sudan 
NOTE from Sudan Watch editor: According to SKBN (South Kordofan, Blue Nile) Coordination Unit Humanitarian Update January 2020 (see above tweet by Eric Reeves dated 19 Feb 2020) populations will need food support by the end of March because limited available food stocks are being shared with large numbers of returnees both from Sudan and S. Sudan, creating a huge food gap. Click on tweet to read more.

Sudan: N. Darfur 10,000 families displaced this week - Poor humanitarian conditions, lack of water & food



NOTE from Sudan Watch editor: UNHCR has spent well over a decade and billions of dollars in funding to help ease the humanitarian crises in Darfur and other regions of Sudan, South Sudan and Chad. Surely UNHCR and other aid agencies should be providing decent humanitarian assistance, safe drinking water and enough food and medical care for people in desperate need.

In China last month, within one week the Chinese built, from scratch, a fully equipped emergency hospital to accommodate at least 1,000 patients suffering from the contagious Coronavirus. 

Billions of dollars worth of aid have been donated to Sudan and South Sudan over the past 15 years or so. What are UNHCR and other aid agencies failing to meet basic needs? Are they corrupt or what? Why are poor Sudanese people still suffering? Why isn't mainstream media investigating the work humanitarian aid agencies? Lazy bums. Note, I have added a tag entitled 'UNHCR corruption' and will keep an eye on news regarding aid agencies in Sudan, South Sudan and Chad.
