Detailed UN Report on Humanitarian Assistance Reaching Sudan

 The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) published on 7 September 2023 a detailed account titled "Sudan Situation Report."

The report documents the humanitarian requirements for Sudan as a result of the ongoing conflict between the Sudan Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces and steps taken by the international community to meet those needs.  For the first time since the conflict began in mid-April, humanitarian convoys reached North Darfur and South Darfur.

UNOCHA noted that it has received in 2023 $676 million in funding for Sudan.  The United States has provided $380 million of the amount or well over half.
