The United Nations refugee agency and the International Organization for Migration reported that aid groups have only assisted about 936,000 individuals due to depleted resources. Mohamed Refaat, the IOM chief in Sudan, confirmed that agency warehouses are now completely empty despite distributing over 40,000 tonnes of aid this year. Meanwhile, over 5.2 million people attempting to return to their places of origin find their homes and local public services completely devastated. Aid officials warn that internal displacement will continue to rise rapidly if emergency supply stocks are not swiftly replenished.
