"Time is running out," said World Health Organization spokesperson Christian Lindmeier in a statement on Friday, warning that the humanitarian tragedy in Sudan will only worsen in the coming months.

According to Lindmeier, "Without a stop to the fighting and unhindered access for the delivery of humanitarian aid, Sudan's crisis will dramatically worsen in the months to come and could impact the whole region."

With the dramatic increase in the number of refugees and the unaddressed issue of disease spread, coupled with the well-known food insecurity in the country, neighboring nations could also suffer alongside Sudan.

"We are only seeing the tip of the iceberg, and the situation could be much more dire in reality," Lindmeier stressed.

After 65 days of fierce clashes between the Sudanese Army and the Rapid Support Forces, military sources report that the army has recaptured the neighbourhoods surrounding the 22nd Infantry Division in Babanusa City, West Kordofan State, military sources stated.

According to the Sudan News website, the areas where the clashes occurred are now mostly deserted, following over 65 days of continuous attacks by the Rapid Support Forces on the military base in Babanusa.

The confrontations between the army and the Rapid Support Forces have triggered a wave of displacement among civilians toward nearby towns and villages.

An official from the Babanusa Emergency Room highlighted the dire humanitarian situation in shelters located in the conflict-affected areas, noting cases of malnutrition among children and reported deaths of newborns.
