The fighting is part of ongoing clashes between the country's army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
She said there had been 11 verified attacks on health facilities, including 10 since April 15.
"According to the Ministry of Health in Sudan, the number of health facilities that have stopped working is 20. And also, according to Ministry of Health numbers, the number of health facilities at risk of stopping is 12," said Harris.
"So this means that all those people who need care, and this is not only the people who've been injured hearings, terrible fighting, but that the people who were needing treatment before and continuing treatment," are impacted, said the WHO spokesperson
At the same press conference, UNICEF spokesperson James Elder said: "Clearly, as ever, the fighting takes a devastating toll on children.
"We now have reports of at least nine children killed and at least 50 injured. Those numbers will continue to rise as long as fighting continues."
