Over 400 killed, 3,500 hurt in Sudan fighting: WHO

The Hindu  

More than 400 people have been killed and over 3,500 others hurt in the fighting in Sudan, the World Health Organization said Friday. "It's taking a devastating toll on the country's children," UNICEF spokesman James Elder told reporters. He said Sudan already had one of the world's highest rates of child malnutrition, with critical life-saving care now disrupted for an estimated 50,000 severely acutely malnourished children. "We need forces to immediately cease hostilities and for all parties to respect their international obligations to protect children from harm," he said.
