IOM Highlights Deepening Humanitarian Crisis in Sudan Amid Funding Shortfalls

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported that over 300 million people needed humanitarian assistance in 2025, with Sudan facing an escalating crisis due to ongoing conflict and severe funding shortfalls. The UN Security Council is scheduled to hold closed consultations on August 5, 2026, to discuss the humanitarian situation in Sudan, particularly in the Darfur and Kordofan regions, where violence and impediments to aid delivery persist.
