Tawila is in Sudan's war-ravaged Darfur region, where displacement has left a large population dependent on emergency support. The WHO's warning focuses on basic civilian survival needs and the lack of sufficient assistance on the ground.

The agency called for an urgent increase in resources to meet the scale of the crisis. The source does not provide further details on specific operations, casualty figures or the parties responsible for the displacement.
