The UN’s World Food Programme says its ability to resume deliveries of life-saving aid in Sudan will depend on whether the latest ceasefire agreement takes hold.
The warring military factions have agreed to a seven-day truce starting on Thursday but previous ceasefires have been repeatedly violated.
A WFP spokesperson, Leni Kinzli, told the BBC that the agency would prioritise emergency food distribution to pre-existing refugees as well as to people newly displaced by violence.
She said operations would be hampered by the looting of thousands of tonnes of food from warehouses in western Darfur region.
