The World Food Programme, the largest provider of food aid in Sudan, said on Wednesday it was forced to pause food distributions in Sudan's famine-plagued Zamzam camp in North Darfur. The camp has been the target of repeated attacks by Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces who seek to uproot the army and allied forces from the region.

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.
