The bloody battles in Sudan between the army and the Rapid Support Forces have begun to raise international and humanitarian concerns, as the World Health Organization has warned of an increasingly deteriorating humanitarian situation.
The organization’s Director-General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, confirmed that civilians and relief workers are suffering under the weight of the ongoing violence, which puts their lives in danger.
He also stressed the need to protect civilians and health and relief workers, calling for peace in the country.
In a related context, the Sudanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs denounced the use by the leaders of the Rapid Support Forces of the Health Organization’s uniform, demanding that the organization clarify the circumstances of the incident and issue a clear condemnation of it. This incident raised concern about the organization’s position on Rapid Support violations.
At the same time, the International Committee of the Red Cross called on the warring parties in the city of El Fasher, North Darfur State, to protect civilians, stressing the importance of avoiding the use of explosive weapons in populated areas.
In light of these developments, the United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator in Sudan warned of the deteriorating humanitarian situation in the city of El Fasher and its surrounding areas, calling for the need to take measures to protect the population and provide humanitarian aid.
The battles of El Fasher were part of the grinding conflict that took place in the Darfur region of Sudan. This conflict began in 2003 when a group of rebels rebelled against the Sudanese government, which led to violent confrontations with government forces and the Janjaweed militias allied with them.
The battles of El Fasher are one of the painful chapters in the history of Darfur, as it witnessed many massacres and gross human rights violations.
These battles caused the death and displacement of thousands of people, and greatly affected the population and infrastructure in the region.
