MSF SUDAN: After 1,000 Days of War, IDPs Face Hunger, Disease, and Neglect in South Darfur

MSF SUDAN: After 1,000 Days of War, IDPs Face Hunger, Disease, and Neglect in South Darfur

After more than 1,000 days of war in Sudan, displacement continues with limited humanitarian scale-up and action. Early January 2026, tens of thousands of people—with a vast majority of women and children — arrived at the newly established Dar Omo IDP camp in Feina, East Jebel Marra, South Darfur. Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) began emergency medical, nutrition, and WASH activities immediately. However, the scale of needs far exceeds what MSF alone can address.

MSF GAZA: Update from Water and Sanitation Coordinator on MSF's work in Beit Lahia

Since Israel has destroyed and restricted access to critical water infrastructure, the amount of water available in Gaza is wholly insufficient. Through the production of drinking water and water trucking, MSF teams can still ensure that 1 in 4 people in Gaza have access to drinking water. As of the 31 December 2025, MSF’s registration in Israel has expired and as it stands, we will have to cease operations in Gaza by 1 March 2026. If MSF and other NGOs are forced to stop water activities, hundreds of thousands of people will lose access to drinking water. Denying humanitarian assistance to civilians is unacceptable under any circumstances. Denying people water, deprives them of the means to survive.
