Every day, over the last three years in Sudan, 53 people on average are killed.

Foreign ministers from across the world met in Berlin on Wednesday to show support for Sudan, where a fourth year of brutal warfare has begun as humanitarian needs deepen.

As Rapid Support Forces cut off the flow of resources to western Sudan, hunger, cholera, and violence abound.

While parts of Sudan's capital show fragile signs of life, across the country the conflict between the army and a rival paramilitary continues to drive mass displacement, hunger and allegations of atrocities.

The conflict, which erupted in 2023, has left behind a human toll which is "simply staggering", reports the BBC's Barbara Plett Usher.

More than nine million people remain displaced in Sudan, while nearly 29 million face acute hunger.

Sudan is entering a fourth year of war marked by famine and massacres, in what the United Nations calls an "abandoned crisis."
