Nutrition data from SMART surveys conducted since January 2026 recorded Critical levels of acute malnutrition across much of Greater Darfur. New evidence points to a sharp increase in severe acute malnutrition admissions in South Darfur and North Darfur, including in several areas previously identified as at risk of Famine in the May 2026 IPC acute food insecurity analysis. Across Greater Kordofan, ongoing conflict, mass displacement, poor rainfall, and restricted livelihood opportunities are further worsening food security and reducing harvest prospects.
