Burning down hundreds makeshift shelters used by the IDPs, Sudan’s paramilitary also torched the famine-struck camp’s central market and its community kitchen, burning the women inside alive, before attacking the last of the camp’s medical posts and killing all its staff.

The airstrike on one of the last major markets left with stocks in the North Darfur will likely accelerate the famine spreading in the state since last August.

Sudan has suspended all imports from Kenya after Nairobi hosted RSF representatives who signed a charter for a parallel government.

Attacks on the camp of nearly half a million IDPs are escalating as they await “their inevitable fate, which is a slow death,” suffering from “severe hunger and lack of medicines”.

The move raises questions about Kenya’s foreign policy alignment and its implications for regional politics in the months to come.

Another attack on Sudan’s largest IDP camp, already at the center of the world’s largest displacement crisis, added to the death toll—on top of the 13 children dying of hunger each day for over six months
