The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said that continued clashes in Sudan are leading to acute shortages of food, water, medicines, and fuel.

"Prices of essential items have skyrocketed. The fighting must stop. People need access to urgent aid and basic services," OCHA warned.

Meanwhile, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said: “Civilians must be able to access food, water, and other essential supplies, and evacuate from combat zones."

This came after the people of Sudan complained of rising prices of essential items such as flour and sugar as a result adding that the raft is stranded due to lack of security.
