Sudan Clinics Face Medicine Shortages Due to Middle East Conflict Disruptions

Medical supplies worth $600,000 destined for Sudan are delayed in Dubai ports due to disruptions from the Middle East conflict, threatening shortages in about 90 government-run clinics serving 400,000 patients. Save the Children warns that without urgent rerouting, essential medicines could run out within weeks amid rising transport costs and constrained aid budgets. The ongoing Sudan conflict has displaced millions, exacerbating humanitarian needs, while UN and WHO officials highlight growing supply chain pressures in the region.
