Gaza: Starvation and Expulsion

The World Socialist Web Site article reports on the dire humanitarian crisis unfolding in Sudan, specifically in the Darfur region. It focuses on warnings from the United Nations regarding the escalating risk of widespread famine. The UN states that the entire population of Darfur is at risk of famine, driven by the ongoing conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The article highlights the breakdown of essential services, including healthcare, and the disruption of food production and distribution due to the fighting. Looting, displacement, and restrictions on humanitarian access are exacerbating the situation, preventing aid from reaching those in need. The conflict has also severely impacted agricultural activities, further threatening food security. The report emphasizes that while the UN is calling for increased funding and humanitarian access, the underlying cause of the famine is the ongoing war, which is a product of geopolitical interests and the failure of Sudanese capitalism. It criticizes the imperialist powers for their role in destabilizing the region and fueling the conflict, while also condemning the Sudanese ruling elite for prioritizing their own power over the well-being of the population. The article suggests that only a socialist program can overcome the crisis. find the original article here: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/05/31/tlnr-m31.html
