From the transcript

As warnings go, it's hard to imagine one starker than that issued by the Norwegian Refugee Council on September 3rd, quoting here, "We cannot be clearer. Sudan is experiencing a starvation crisis of historic proportions.

Every opportunity to head off the worst of the situation has been missed, and now the people of Sudan face a crisis unmatched in decades." The crisis in question is a famine, one that threatens to be so large, so widespread that researchers are cautioning it could become the deadliest scene in 40 years.

In the worst sense of the word, that's an incredible claim. If true, it would mean that the suffering in Sudan may soon eclipse that scene in Yemen in 2018, Tigray in 2022, or even North Korea in the early 1990s.
