Sudan on precipice of famine ‘beyond imagination’, says outgoing UN aid chief

Man-made crises in Gaza and Sudan leaving millions of people at risk, says retiring British diplomat Martin Griffiths

Sudan is facing horror beyond imagination", the outgoing UN aid chief has warned, with 750,000 people under imminent threat of famine and with conditions in danger of worsening even further.

The British diplomat Martin Griffiths will retire from his job as the UN's undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs at a time when famine on a historic scale is looming over Sudan and Gaza.
