Key takeaway Of all the people reached, 1 million received assistance in areas classified as at Risk of Famine (RoF).
Why this matters
The World Food Programme's ability to reach a record 3.7 million people in Sudan in June highlights the critical role of logistical capacity and coordination with partners in responding to humanitarian crises. The fact that 1 million of those reached were in areas at Risk of Famine underscores the severity of the situation and the need for sustained support. However, the severe funding constraints facing WFP threaten to undermine these efforts, with food stocks expected to be depleted by September and cash-based transfers set to run out in August. This funding shortfall has significant implications for the millions of vulnerable people who rely on WFP assistance, and it is crucial that additional resources are secured to prevent a worsening of the humanitarian situation. The exhaustion of WFP's resources would not only leave millions without support but also exacerbate the risk of famine in already vulnerable areas.
