The war in Sudan has been raging since April 15, putting the capital Khartoum on fire and bloodshed. In its wake, thousands of deaths and more than four million people forced to flee their homes. The humanitarian situation has become precarious and fragile, exacerbated by the fact that access to displaced populations remains difficult.
Mamadou Dian Balde, regional director of the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), is currently on site in Sudan to assess the situation and put in place humanitarian aid measures. On the phone from Kosti, White Nile State, he worries about the severe impact of this conflict on civilians and calls for increased efforts to end this devastating war.
Even before the outbreak of this crisis, Sudan already had 1.1 million refugees from neighboring countries. This new violence has exacerbated an already fragile situation and led to a massive influx of people desperate for safety and protection. The consequences are dramatic, with thousands of lives lost and millions displaced, often destitute.
Faced with this humanitarian disaster, access to displaced populations remains a major challenge. Humanitarian organizations are struggling to reach the affected areas and bring life-saving assistance to those who need it most. The need to redouble our efforts to end this conflict is becoming more and more pressing.
In this context, it is essential to increase international mobilization to support humanitarian efforts in Sudan. Emergency aid, such as the provision of food, drinking water, medical care and protection, is vital for the displaced populations who have lost everything.
It is also essential to promote peace and reconciliation in Sudan, in order to put an end to this endless cycle of violence. Regional and international actors must actively engage in the search for a lasting political solution that will restore stability and guarantee the security of civilians.
In conclusion, the war in Sudan is having devastating consequences for civilian populations, with thousands of lives lost and millions displaced. It is imperative to redouble efforts to put an end to this conflict and to strengthen humanitarian assistance to meet the pressing needs of the displaced populations. International mobilization is essential to support these efforts and promote peace and reconciliation in Sudan
