UN official calls out brutal violence amid Sudan conflict surge

A deepening humanitarian crisis grips Sudan, as UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk warns of escalating violence.

Reports indicate widespread human rights abuses continue across the nation.

The ongoing civil war, which erupted in April 2023, shows no signs of abating.

Türk voiced profound concern regarding the deteriorating situation.

He highlighted the severe protection risks faced by civilians daily.

A pervasive culture of impunity for human rights violations compounds the tragedy.

The Commissioner specifically cited dire consequences in North Darfur and Kordofan.

These regions report a surge in civilian casualties.

Disturbing accounts of sexual violence, abductions, and rampant looting also emerge.

The conflict inflicts untold suffering upon vulnerable populations.

The brutal conflict pits the General Abdel Fattah al Burhan’s army against the Rapid Support Forces where the war caused thousands of deaths.

Over 13 million people now find themselves displaced.

Homes, vital health facilities, and bustling markets lie in ruins.
