The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) is currently dispatching critical medical commodities and supplies following the 28 October 2025 attack on the Saudi Maternity Hospital in El Fasher, North Darfur, Sudan. The assault, which killed hundreds of patients and caregivers and led to the abduction of several health workers, has crippled one of the few remaining medical facilities in the region and raised grave concerns about the continuity of essential health services.
