Aid groups say 21 million people face acute food insecurity as communal kitchens struggle and families skip meals or eat leaves and animal feed.
- Leading NGOs reported on Monday that millions in Sudan survive on one meal daily, with famine conditions confirmed in North Darfur and South Kordofan.
- Three years of conflict between the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces have systematically eroded Sudan's food system through farming disruptions and deliberate starvation tactics.
- Some 61.7% of Sudan's population—28.9 million people—are acutely food-insecure, with Female-headed households three times more likely to face hunger than male-headed households.

- Formal famine recognition in Fashir and Kadugli in November contrasts sharply with the Government's denial of famine and the RSF's rejection of responsibility for conditions in controlled areas.
