The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, has expressed concern about the deliberate and apparent denial of safe access for aid agencies into Sudan.
Türk noted that the measure could amount to a war crime punishable by international law.
The comments come as fighting continues in Sudan between the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese army, killing thousands and displacing millions.
Addressing the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Türk called on warring parties to open humanitarian corridors immediately, warning that delays could lead to further loss of life, looting and attacks on relief supplies, and bureaucratic complications preventing aid from reaching Port Sudan.
A group defending internally displaced people said millions in the Darfur region were at risk of starvation after aid deliveries through Chad were blocked.
According to the UN, half of Sudan’s 25 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance and protection, while millions have been displaced to the Central African Republic, Chad, Egypt, Ethiopia, and South Sudan.
Türk concluded his remarks by stressing that the humanitarian crisis in Sudan is turning the country upside down and severely threatening the peace, security, and humanitarian situation across the entire region.
