Sudan is grappling with a devastating cholera outbreak that has claimed 430 lives and affected over 14,000 people in just one month.
Confirmed in August, the outbreak has spread across Kassala, Gedaref, Khartoum, Al-Jazirah, and River Nile provinces, exacerbated by heavy rains and flooding.
The ongoing civil war has crippled the country's healthcare system, with hospitals under attack and essential supplies running out.
Cholera, a highly contagious disease that thrives in unsanitary conditions, continues to spread, further burdening a population already suffering from famine and displacement.
