The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has extended its self-registration for cash transfers in El Gezira through the Bankak<\/em> application until November 23, aiming to support families affected by Sudan\u2019s ongoing war.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This extension seeks to accommodate more families in need, as severe hunger and widespread insecurity persist in El Gezira, following a surge in violence<\/a> perpetrated by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in September and October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohamed Jamal, WFP\u2019s communications officer and spokesperson in Sudan, told Radio Dabanga that the self-registration programme targets areas where hunger rates are exceptionally high, making direct food distribution unfeasible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme, which began as a pilot in Khartoum, registered thousands of besieged residents during its initial phase. These residents received cash assistance through the Bankak<\/em> application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
