WFP is working to scale up assistance in Sudan for 7 million people by mid-year in Sudan. In Libya, in February, WFP distributed food assistance to 4,285 individuals and reached 342 children under five and 125 pregnant and breastfeeding women and girls.
More than 22 months have passed since the escalation of conflict in Sudan in April 2023. Health is the sector with the third highest people in need as per the Humanitarian Needs Response Plan 2025 (HNRP).
In February alone, within the total of 3.2 million people assisted, WFP provided Cash-Based Transfers (CBT) to 1.4 million people, the highest number of people reached under this modality since the conflict began.
There are now 12.9 million forcibly displaced due to the outbreak of conflict in Sudan since April 2023, including 8.9 million internally and 3.8 million in neighbouring countries.
