UN: Sudan conflict descending into ‘full-blown catastrophe’

 


United Nations and Sudanese officials said that the conflict in Sudan has descended into a “full-blown catastrophe” and people are facing a humanitarian disaster.

On Monday, UN and Sudan's officials warned that the conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary group the Rapid Support Forces can lead to a humanitarian crisis.

Officials from the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs of the United Nations said that a third of the population in Sudan needs urgent assistance. Reportedly, 3.7 million, mainly from Darfur province, have been displaced from their homes because of the conflict that began on April 15 between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary group the Rapid Support Forces.

Hassan Hamid Hassan, Sudan’s permanent representative to the UN in Geneva, said that the paramilitary forces launched unprovoked attacks against Sudan’s armed forces just hours before a scheduled meeting between the leader of the Sudanese army General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and the leader of Rapid Support Forces General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo.

General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan and General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo helped in overthrowing authoritarian President Omar Al-Bashir in a 2021 coup.

According to reports, at least 30 hospitals and other medical facilities in Sudan are destroyed due to the recent violence. Tens of thousands of people are also at risk due to the lack of medical assistance and food shortages in the region.

According to the health ministry of Sudan, at least 512 people have been killed and 4,200 have been wounded due to the fighting between the two Sudanese rivals.

Abdou Dieng, the UN’s acting resident and humanitarian coordinator in Sudan, said that people are unable to access basic necessities. Many health facilities are also closed in Sudan due to the violence. Many people also fled Sudan to save their lives.

The fighting still continues in the country.
