The United Nations World Food Program (WFP) announced on Wednesday that it was halting aid operations at Sudan’s Zamzam displaced persons camp in North Darfur due to escalating violence between the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and armed groups allied with the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).

The United Nations’ food agency says it has paused aid distribution in Sudan’s famine-hit Zamzam displacement camp of a half-million people as fighting intensifies between the country’s warring sides

Doctors Without Borders has suspended all its work at the Zamzam camp in Sudan, where around 500,000 people live seeking safety from the nation's civil war.
