Overview
- WFP acting director Carl Skau and IOM chief Amy Pope warned Monday that funding for Sudan has dropped sharply this year and the gap to sustain current operations is just under $300 million.
- The World Food Programme has received about $206 million so far in 2026 compared with $645 million last year and now reaches roughly 4–5 million people each month while rationing supplies in places such as Tawila.
- IOM says 8.6 million people remain internally displaced and that its shelter, sanitation and household relief stocks could be exhausted by the end of September without emergency donations.
- Humanitarians report they have presence and some logistics across Darfur, El Obeid, El Fasher, Kordofan and Blue Nile but cannot use full capacity because money, not access, is the main constraint.
- If donors do not provide rapid new funding, agencies warn the pipeline that delivers food, shelter and sanitation could collapse and leave millions facing deeper hunger, loss of shelter and rising protection risks.
