  2. Here’s the report:

    Since many right-wingers will probably draw the IPC report into question as they did with the last report the IPC published: Yes, they were working with limited data and extrapolated from it. Surprise, in a lot of places that are under siege it is very difficult to get data out. Also, the measure of GAM prevalence by MUAC they employed for El-Fasher is NOT a weaking of standards. This measure exceeding 15% has always been a valid condition for declaring a famine and the 19.3% they found for El-Fasher is well clear of the threshold and also even higher than the 16% they found in Gaza.

    It is extremely critical to fund aid organizations that provide emergency food aid and there have to be diplomatic efforts for a ceasefire.

  3. If you live in Sudan, why even have kids? There is no future and then they complain about food and war.

  6. How many in the global north care?

    Plus, there is a war going on in Sudan. What is anyone going to do? Conquer them? Send in aid to be stolen by the militant group. Like it or not, there is no world police, and very few nations would want to get involved.

    It will get worse, until it gets much worse. Not unlike Haiti.
