As Sudan’s humanitarian crisis deepens and ethnic violence in Darfur’s western region escalates, a senior UN official warned that violence against civilians is “verging on pure evil.”
After weeks of growing tension over a plan to integrate forces as part of a transition from military rule to civilian democracy, a war broke out on April 15 between the Sudanese army and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
According to Clementine Nkweta-Salami, the U.N top aid official in Sudan
“We continue to receive unrelenting and appalling reports of sexual- and gender-based violence and forced disappearance, arbitrary detentions and grave violations of human and children’s rights.
“What is happening is verging on pure evil. The protection of civilians continues to be of major concern,” she said.
Nkweta-Salami said some 25 million people more than half of the population need humanitarian help and protection and more than six million have fled their homes and are displaced inside Sudan or in neighboring countries.
“We have recently received disturbing reports about escalating violence and attacks against civilians, including what appears to be on an ethnic basis in Darfur,” she said.
People fleeing to Chad have reported a new surge in ethnically driven killings in Sudan’s West Darfur as the RSF took over the main army base in the state capital, El Geneina.
