UN searches for new humanitarian entry point into Sudan

The United Nations is thinking about sending help to Sudan through a different path from South Sudan because they are having trouble reaching many areas of the country.

Rick Brennan, from the World Health Organisation (WHO), said they were planning to set up operations that would go across the borders from South Sudan into South and West Kordofan in Sudan.

He said the war has caused a big problem for people and made it hard for workers to do their jobs.

The fighting between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has made almost half of the people in Sudan need help.

Over seven million people have left their homes, which makes Sudan the biggest displacement crisis in the world.
