The United Nations’ World Food Programme has temporarily suspended assistance in some parts of Sudan’s Al-Jazirah state, where it was supporting more than 800,000 people, as fighting spreads.
About 300,000 people have fled Al-Jazirah since Dec. 15, when clashes erupted, the WFP said in an emailed statement.
