Hundreds of thousands of people are now at imminent risk of starvation in Sudan, as the catastrophic humanitarian crisis in the country continues to intensify after more than a year of violent conflict. This is according to a new report released on Thursday by the IPC (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification) - a United Nations (UN)-backed initiative that monitors the severity and magnitude of hunger crises. The report shows that looking from June to September, the number of people in catastrophic hunger (the most severe level) is expected to rise from 109,000 to 755,000 people. • Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj • Get breaking news and more stories at http://www.itv.com/news Follow ITV News on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itvnews/ Follow ITV News on Twitter: https://twitter.com/itvnews Follow ITV News on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itvnews/
