DW reports continued civilian displacement during the planting season and an arms embargo extension limited to Darfur.

Its coverage also identifies climate change and drone attacks as aggravating the humanitarian crisis. The item says the UN has extended an arms embargo, but only for Darfur.
What holds up
- ✓DW explicitly attributes the health-system warning to aid groups, rather than reporting collapse as an accomplished fact.
- ✓The extract reports continued displacement and a UN arms embargo extension limited to Darfur.
What doesn't yet
- ?The aid groups are not named in the extract, and no facility-level evidence or timetable supports the prediction of imminent collapse.
- ?The supplied material includes neither the UN decision nor figures showing the scale of displacement or health-service losses.
