Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, called for collective international efforts to save Sudan and prevent its collapse, during the African Peace and Security Council summit.

Aboul Gheit participated in the opening of the African Peace and Security Council summit dedicated to discussing developments in the situation in Sudan via Zoom technology, which was held today, Friday, under the chairmanship of President Yoweri Museveni, President of Uganda and Chairman of the current session of the African Peace and Security Council.

The meeting was attended by the Chairman of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, the Executive Secretary of IGAD, Workni Qebeho, and the representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations.

During his speech, Aboul Gheit pointed out that the Arab League had warned since the first day of the outbreak of the conflict against the fragmentation of international and regional efforts and the slowness in their implementation as a result of a lack of coordination, which contributes to the deterioration of the field and humanitarian conditions as a result of the continuing military confrontations.

Aboul Gheit stressed the importance of implementing the Jeddah Platform understandings, returning to the peaceful path to resolve the Sudanese crisis, and launching a Sudanese-led dialogue.

Aboul Gheit stressed the need to implement Security Council Resolution No. 2736 issued on June 13, which called on the Rapid Support Forces to end the siege of El Fasher, immediately stop the fighting, and calm the escalation in and around North Darfur state.

Sudan is waging a devastating war between the Sudanese army led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces led by Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo (Hemedti), which left about 15,000 dead and more than 8 million displaced and refugees, according to the United Nations.
