This extension in effect from Wednesday ensures that critical aid will continue to flow from Chad into conflict-affected regions of Sudan, particularly Darfur.<\/p>\n

\u201cHumanitarians in Sudan welcome this decision as the Adre border crossing is a critical lifeline for hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people across the country, especially in Darfur,\u201d said Clementine Nkweta-Salami, the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Sudan.<\/p>\n

The war between the national forces of the military-led Government in Khartoum and the rival militia of the Rapid Support Forces erupted in April last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cKeeping the Adre border open means humanitarians can continue to deliver emergency food and nutrition supplies, medicine, shelter, and other life-saving assistance<\/strong> to hundreds of thousands of hungry, malnourished mothers and children, people suffering from diseases, and others that desperately need these supplies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Adre crossing has proven essential in sustaining humanitarian operations amid the crisis in Sudan, driven by the brutal 19-month war between rival militaries.<\/p>\n

Since it was reopened in mid-August, at least 377 aid trucks have traversed the border, carrying essential supplies that have supported approximately 1.4 million people facing acute hunger and the risk of famine.<\/p>\n

Need for funds<\/h2>\n

Despite this crucial channel for aid delivery, the UN agencies continue to stress the urgent need for additional funding to maintain and scale up operations.<\/p>\n

Into the final two months of 2024, the $2.7 billion Sudan humanitarian appeal is only 57 per cent funded. The shortfall poses significant challenges to sustaining relief efforts at the necessary scale.<\/p>\n

Between January and September 2024, humanitarian agencies reached about 12.6 million people throughout Sudan with various forms of assistance.<\/p>\n

However, with the conflict continuing unabated and driving needs across the region, increased funds remain critical to avert further humanitarian catastrophe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
