Atbara, January 19, 2024 – The Sudanese Ministry of Health has confirmed the presence of a cholera outbreak in the River Nile State, with 36 suspected cases and two deaths reported.
The outbreak, which initially emerged in Gedaref and Khartoum states in September 2023, has since spread to several other states, including Al-Jazirah, White Nile, Red Sea, and Kassala. The United Nations has warned that the disease could affect over three million Sudanese.
