Refiles to add country to headline

- Medical charity MSF said on Monday that it would suspend its activities in the famine-stricken Zamzam displacement camp in Sudan's North Darfur due to escalating attacks and fighting in and around it.

"Despite widespread starvation and immense humanitarian needs, we have no choice but to take the decision to suspend all our activities in the camp, including the MSF field hospital," MSF said in a statement.

MSF teams have this month treated 139 patients with gunshot and shrapnel wounds in its field hospital, it said, amid clashes between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.
