A conflict raging for about a year between rival generals in Sudan risks creating the world’s largest hunger crisis, the top UN food official has warned.

Cindy McCain, head of the World Food Programme (WFP), said the fighting in Sudan, which pits the country’s military against a paramilitary group, has shattered the lives of millions across the north-eastern African nation, while the world’s attention is focused on the Israel-Hamas conflict.
