Sudan Osint posted that local officials said about six people are dying daily in rebel-held pockets of Darfur from malnutrition and disease, with aid shortages and crop failures worsening famine in areas such as Jebel Marra. SIHRO separately posted that the World Health Organization was calling for more resources for Darfur's growing humanitarian health needs and for safe, sustained and unhindered humanitarian access so partners could scale up.

Evidence: Sudan Osint post on deaths from malnutrition and disease in Darfur pockets, SIHRO post on WHO call for Darfur resources and access

Two public X posts. The mortality rate is attributed by Sudan Osint to local officials, while the access request is attributed by SIHRO to WHO. The record does not attribute the deaths to an attack or to the RSF.
